Well, this thread prompted me to check the local dealer lot, and there it was. In gleaming metallic-silverish-darkish color, one 2006 STi. Looked good. And, I must say, the car looked better in person than it did in these pictures. The second spoiler, the one above the rear window, didn't look bad and it wasn't as prominent as in the pictures. Car was sharp. They were asking north of $34,000 on the sticker.

That's why I'm really attracted to the '06 WRX. Great looks, more compliant suspension, and a blast at the dragstrip. I can't wait to see the performance numbers for the new STI & WRX. I'm guessing 13.0-13.1 for the STI and 13.9-14.0 for the WRX... -Chike

I wonder if Subaru will be offering a all-season tire package as an option or perhaps a second choice? Because with the factory tires the car has on it now snow/ice traction will be very limited.

I thought there was a Toyota dealership next door? And in a few months Toyota will be selling the new FJ-40 [short body Landcruiser] for the first time in about 20 years. But I love that new STi in silver.

as you guys post more and more pictures i have went from a mild dislike of the 06 body style to becoming rather fond of it, it just takes some getting used to, and im sure that there will be aftermarket body kits and such that will make it look awesome, too bad i wont be able to even think about buying one for another few years, im sure that peolple were like wtf when the bug-eyed wrx came out, same with the 05 body style, just wait till you start seeing them around.

Unless there are two of the hideous beasts, those were shot at Lancaster County Motors, just about a mile from the racecar's home.

That is a Toyota dealership in the background of the photos of the silver one. But in the first blue photo there is an Evo sitting in the service lot.

I see a pattern here...as soon as Subaru redesigns or comes out with a new model everyone here hates the look.
Within a few days everyone makes a complete 180 on their opinion. First was the B11S, then the Tribeca then the 06 Impreza.

I'm still not a fan of the rear window wing thing.
