wow, they definately wanna compete with Mitsu on that aggresive look.
personally I find the back to be the most attractive part, the front is very very aggrevise with good cues but it actually is a bit TOO complicated, simplifying and unifying the look could help, though I prefer these headlights over all models since the old late 90's/early '00s.
everything seems good until you see that side profile....yuck
it can't decide if it wants to be a hatch or a coupe, it's trapped in purgatory.
with the particular aggressive elements they use, i would say go for the coupe, or even go and add some rear doors, I like hatches, don't get me wrong, but the particular design elements lend themselves to a sightyly longer hatchback coupe style.
something akin to, say, the side profile of an '99 2.5 RS
THAT would be plain sexy...and a helluva lot better than that gross excuse for an impreza they're trying to sell now for '08.
now, the more that i look at it, I see some definite Ford Mondeo in those headlights; Ah, "kinetic" design.
