I've heard so many conflicting stories about the new WRX.. When I first saw the press release photos, I though they looked horrible. But over time, I have come to appreciate the looks of the new WRX and have been pondering a change over from the Lib to the WRX when I get around to selling the car in a year or so... I would like to hear from someone that has actually driven one of these things and how it compares to comfort/ride levels compared to a Liberty. Yes, I am too lazy to go and test drive one for myself.

Now might be a good time to get one. For QLD WRX Club members Subaru are selling them for $38990 drive away. Apparently it's runout time. Daniel on OZLib has one(B4TT?) and has posted a bit about it over there.
As Tony Montana would say:
In this country, you gotta make the money first.
Then when you get the money, you get the power.
Then when you get the power, then you get the women.

They look Horrid. Unfortunately they f*cked up the other models even better. So in retrospect the 08 WRX looks good...... yeeaahh. Since when did -1+-1 = 2?

Exterior is rather ugly, but I don't have to live with that. Its the interior I believe to be the big let down.

Even a bug eye STi would offer great value, especially at today's prices :)

I think theyre trying 2 aim it at women these days, I personally hate the new styles - they look like a f*cked up old civic/barina with fairy lights lol I'm a girl (duh) but they really dont appeal 2 me one bit. Theyre too small, awful shape and plain uuuuuugly. Older styles were so much better - and badder lookin.
