It looks like they took the previous legacy (good looking car) and inflated it like a balloon.

Go get inside one, it is very tight on the inside. I ended up having to get a legacy.
The drivers area just felt too cramped in the 2011 Impreza.

This is coming from a guy that spent 9 years driving a 2001 RS coupe.
I loved my RS, and I miss her so much :/

Re: Possibly Ugliest Subaru Ever

They are still Subarus, which means they are awesome vehicles. I don't really buy new anyhow, but personally I like the previous gen Legacy, so if I were buying a Subaru it would be a 2009 Legacy GT.

i never did care much for the 2008-2011 impreza; it just felt cheap. i'm intrigued by the promise of 36mpg highway, but i think i may find the 148hp 2.0L unbearable.
