Subaru's STI Going Down Hill?

The new sti makes me want to buy it and smash it into a wall.

The old one is so bomb, I can’t believe the new ones look so shitty. The new Evo 10 is going to grab a huge chunk of the market when it comes out.

Maybe its just me though, but damn those old sti’s are sexy

the 2002-2003 STI’s were sexy, thats about it. I like the new ones though.

Hottest Body Style IMO

I think the subi designers looked at all the hot hatches…and tried to incorporate everything into one…

but honestly…how do they expect to compete against this???

it’s so sex…

I love the new evo, but its still a mitsubishi.

people hated the 2006-2007 model, especially the front end. Now people love it since it’s “better looking” than the new 2008 model. I have a feeling that’s exactly what people will think in a couple of years when everyone gets used to the 2008 look.

im sorry but i must say version 5 sti ftw!!! http://www.sjautomotive.com.au/images/cars/RogSTi2.jpg

version 5 is pure old school sex! but the newest one does look bad. The other two are both sexy in their own ways

IIRC the new sti was designed by a bunch of toyota guys so i assumed they wanted to make the new sti more aerodynamic to save fuel efficiency instead of having it a big blob of metal smacking the wind.

BAH. The new STI doesnt look bad in person, its actually pretty menacing. The WRX on the other hand is bland and dull. Dont judge it until you see it, same as the EVO X which the photo of the EVO X posted is a photoshop so it doesnt count much.

I’d have to say the meanest looking of all WRX - EVO cars is:

ALL I GOTTA SAY IS WOW…THE SEXIEST FRONT END IN 08 BAR NONE!!!

wow, i never thought the sti would look like that… moranno(sp??) with a forcus front… don’t look like a sports car, it better perform like one!!

i really agree that the evo is gonna grab the market, it looks awesome!! one of the meanest looking cars. gtr v-spec II still takes the cake!

Wait till FNF4

Is it me or does the newest STI looks like a Ford focus

maybe??

lol when u actually see them side by side, wow they do really look alike!!!

wat?
FnF going to ruin rally racing now???

Design wise imo it’s not bad,
it’s just bad ass in a smaller, big
fender flared package :smiley:

besides it can easily take down the new EVO
in almost everything, as demonstrated in the
recent BEST MOTORING head 2 head battle :wink:

SUBARU ftw! although the EVO is the sexier of the two!

i wouldnt doubt it, every year sti beats evo, but i think hands down the evo looks better, and has more potential to look better with a kit, the sti will just look like a riced out focus!!

I have to agree that its getting worse but the jdm sti doesnt look that bad
