You know people at Subaru are actually working!!!!
Nice, atleast this time Subaru learned lesson quickly and responded appropriately to the market. The new look B9 is a lot better than old one and I am sure, the current owners will feel bad for buying the current version, but on the other side they can be a proud owners of a weired and "gets looks anywhere" type vehicle . Of course we all know that Impreza is also getting new face lift.
Check out the new B9 here -Pavan. |

some of us like the looks of the old b9t. gotta love the new engine though. and i believe the new impreza is much more than a facelift.

Yeh, I too like the present look, but according to the market demand/feedback the new face lift will boost its sale to a considerable extent so that they wont consider this one as the next Baja (which was dropped from this year).

I don't like these steroid looking cars and don't like the Tribeca.

...well, I like it much more. The back was the worst part of the old one. GREAT change in the back. Some things i dislike on the front, some I do like... mostly a change for the better.

it looks better than the old one, but at the same time it looks just like a Hyundai Santa Fe.

It is not looking so odd to most people but it looks like the ford SUV and the whole car also looks like the hyundai SUV. The interior is nice okay. The old B9 wasn't too bad, it was unique.

I like the B9 more now that the front end doesnt look like a walrus. Subaru had to mess up the Impreza though, it kinda reminds me of a Camry
I'm praying they dont touch the Legacy. Dustin Ps. Has anybody realized there are pillars on the doors of the impreza now?

I have to say that this version is lacking it presence.... so people may buy it, but not a truly subaru enthusiast like us. The current version is more noticeable and unique. I think they messed up with the rear end on this newer version, looks more like many other suvs on the road.
