Ok I'm not to keen on the look of the car! But the play ground they used to make this advertisement I love I wish that was my back garden yes please ;)

Nice Sunday afternoon Gopro set up on the car and boom check out my footage on an 06 Impreza will look every bit as good as the new shape.

I agree car looks like crap imo almost Toyota prius looking :( 

And would love to be able to be let loose on the track by my self with a fuel truck on stand by

Yes Gambit agreed Toyota Prius looking, not the look you want for a Subaru they need to stick with it's own identity.

When I win the Euro millions I will let you loose on my track and fuel is free ;)

I agree don't like the look but like the performance, my partner on the other hand loves the look.

Don't get me wrong I would still have a play in it. Mind you I like to play with anything :D

If I ever did end up with one I'd spend so much money trying to make it look like the concept version.

agree with above comments - think the concept had so much going for it and it is properly watered down - here is a photoshop approach to sorting it a little

Wish I could use Photoshop as good as that :)

That's a shame if you would of said yes I was going to ask if I could send you a picture of my car and a list of items i wanted to see added to the car lol :)

Looks Fugly! Such a shame.

Still, there's the STi version to be properly revealed yet. Hopefully that will look more like the concept. But then again thinking back to the spied version I doubt it :(

Urgh Subarus car designers need to go sit in a quiet corner somewhere and have words with themselves. the Levorg ok they can get away with that the Impreza WRX no. And same for that Legacy even that look's like an ugly child only a mother could love.

Mr. Takatsu, "Project General Manager" of the new WRX that was unveiled at the LA Auto Show on November 21, 2013, provides his insight to development and talks about the fun of driving the WRX.

Still think it's ugly 

[Jay762]

yup me to

[Gambit]

Did you read the Auto Magazine post. They said it's stylish ????

 

I just hope they've gone with the WRX being a bit more for the wider market while making the STI more for the petrol headed car enthusiasts of us Subaru Impreza owners. And while I'm moaning I hate that shark fin on the car too :D 

[Jay762]

dont mind the shark fin - was considering one of those previously...

2015 sti's looks is not unique as 2005-2007. But real problem is performance. Nothing improved, almost same engine, same tork, same hp, this car almost equal with 2005 STİ . Fuel consumption still very bad. What's the point i don't get it: Why anyone sells his old sti to buy this car?

[Gambit]

Well I'm with the Hamster I like it as a car. I'me sure we would all like more power but the specs not that bad when you look at other German cars or Jap in the same price range

I'm with Stalker - no not you Gambit, the one with stalker in his name. ;)

The STi used to be a proper giant killer sold at a reasonable price. Now it's only as good or slightly better than modern hot hatches and mid spec German saloons. Sure, as Hammond says, the closest rival is still around £3000 more with the Audi. But they used to be able to keep up and beat cars costing 2-3x as much. It's not really changed since the shark eye performance wise now.

STi's were performance icons, looking at this and the figures, I just can't see that happening now. :(

Hopefully they've sorted the chocolate pistons out this time though.

Thanks for your comments.

 

All of us know that this car still far better than hot hatches! this hot hatch cars just powerful and slightly improved version of the ordinary ones. But Wrx and Sti Awd, chasis, handling far better than this creepy performance cars. 

 

  In my opinion Wrx is more sensible choice than 2015 sti. New engine, reasonable price it's more attractive than sti.
