Looks kinda hot. They'll probably apply the bland-hammer pretty liberally before it hits production.

MPREZIV · 2008-12-17, 12:11 PM

That is pretty sweet. I dig the L.E.D.s in the headlights.

JonnydaJibba · 2008-12-17, 03:18 PM

I like it.

ScottyS · 2008-12-17, 04:09 PM

Gotta see the rest of the curves. If they are migrating the Leggy back towards the Impreza in terms of looks, it's a sad day.

Nick Koan · 2008-12-17, 04:11 PM

Nah, I'm really seeing more of a premium sports-sedan look. Like an Acura TSX or something.

sperry · 2008-12-17, 04:19 PM

Um... FMIC?

Nick Koan · 2008-12-17, 04:20 PM

The link states that its being powered by a 3.6L H6 N/A.

I wonder if they plan on dropping the turbo model of the Legacy (again).

Actually, it would make a lot of sense to use that Tribecca motor in all the bigger cars. 250hp+ w/o lag and on 87 makes more sense than a de-tuned STi motor in those things.

I clicked the link is there only 1 picture?

I wasn't clicking around everywhere.

Nick Koan · 2008-12-17, 08:50 PM

yeah, just the one.

And then the same one with it severely lightened so as to show more of the car that's hidden in shadows.

Dewey · 2008-12-18, 08:11 PM

I like how they are taking a look from the G35s, but I really dislike how they made the grille so much taller. The 05 model grille is the best look imo. I dont like the "tall" look.

It has Shrek ears for mirrors.

Rearview mirror and side mirrors are gone (or just really small) and are replaced with a series of cameras. Four bucket seats instead of a rear bench (so, one less passenger, though that was rarely used anyway) and a bunch of touch panels everywhere.

Just curious to see how much is actually put into the 2010 redesign.

MPREZIV · 2009-01-14, 07:52 AM

Not diggin' the rear end...

JonnydaJibba · 2009-01-14, 09:27 AM

I don't like it anymore. =(

ScottyS · 2009-01-14, 12:18 PM

TTIUWOWP.

Nick Koan · 2009-01-14, 12:20 PM

Hah. Its just a concept.

Probably no wagon pics until the production versions are announced.

A1337STI · 2009-01-14, 04:19 PM

Its pretty cool. replacing the side views with cameras + monitors is a cool way to make it more airo. Replacing the rear view mirror with a camera is a bit stupid. i'm sure the cameras are going to break well before a rear view mirror is going to break. and which will be cheaper to replace?

if they wanted to replace the rear window with sheet metal (aluminum please) to save weight, and then put a rear view monitor + camera, you got me.

although it would make the car a lil darker, and backing up a bitch.

they need to ditch those lil nubs where the side views used to be.

i mostly dig it though

3.6 H a new optional motor? yay!
