now that looks fuckin shitloads better than the current model

Talking

i'd take a Lancer Evo over it any day...
BUT... it sure looks good, but i say its still missing
a more rugged radical styling, something to go more
with what the amazing machine represents...

anyways, how much HP does this baby sport, and
what does it do on a 0-60mph?

Thank god they finally got some scence and removed those hevious big round fog lights... too bad the exterior changes are rather minor, I would expect a much better design for such an energetic car, but hey- even minor changes are better then nothing.


Posted by jp on Sep-05-2002 11:04:

Everything but the looks and the exhaust stayed the same.

So 280hp, 0-60 in 5 sec etc etc

The car will be in the showrooms the end of this year

btw: New Lancer Evolution coming too a bit later, this car was also looking boring...

So both Subaru and Mitsubishi finally understand they should make the cars look agressive again

im glad they changed the front lights. they got a lot of shit off ppl and car TV shows about them.

The front looks stunning!!! i dont like the back that much, i dont think it should come up as far as that. But i will prob get used to it.

I wonder how long this Subaru V Mitsubishi challange is going to go on for. lol
The Evo does look more aggressive but its handling and speed are nothin like the subaru.

sure i'll accept that last comment, only if youre referring to the current Evo, which is crap... the best Evo of them all and argueably the best 4cylinder turbocharged 4x4 sedan ever made is the
Evo 6.5 aka Evolution VI Tommi Makinen Edition.

it handles better than most things once could ever hope to drive,
looks fucking sweet, goes 0-60 in about 4.5 and when well tuned
can output a good 300bhp... not to mention the sweet ass RECARO seats,
MOMO steering wheel and titanium turbo...

EDIT: also, dont be fooled by what happens at the WRC, these cars and
their street legal counterparts share very little, as a rally evo or
subaru can cost about $400,000 easily. the performance street legal
versions are a lot more limited, and just because subaru beats Mitsu
@ the rally doesnt mean that the street legal ones will do the same...

Sad

The new model is fugly.. The headlights?? WTF? They were what made the WRX distinguishable from all other cars.. Stupid tail-lights too.. and whats with the spoiler? gay!.... The wagon is just completely horrid.. I'm extremely dissapointed with Subaru on this one..

They should have used the STi design from last year.. Although it does look like they "tried" to..

Also.. jp. Where'd you get 280hp from?? A WRX only has 227.. an WRX Sti has 267.. I'm assuming that this one will probably end up around 240-250..

i don't know about the legitamacy of these pictures... they look very very photoshopped especially the lights... and subaru would have announced face lift changes to the 2003 model a while ago... I heard they weren't gonna unveil the new look for the wrx until the tokyo auto show....

Beautiful car, indeed Looks light years nicer than the ugly-ass 2002 one, with the round lights. But it still doesn't compare to my true love:





Oh, and as for the Impreza's taking out the Lancers in speed and handling...ugh, I'm not gonna argue about this again. Me and JP had a little battle going on before...the difference's are so minimal. And the Lancer is faster...the model that I got here, Zero Fighter, does 0-60mph in 4 seconds, whereas the fastest Impreza does it in 4.1 or 4.2 I think. Nonetheless, I prefer the Lancer much much more, looks more aggressive, but I do like the Impreza quite a bit as well.

hmm i think youre right...look at the front right tire. does it seem to have a large chunck missing?..and even if they arent chopped it looks fugly anyway. blah..yuck..not that i would pass one up..but i think they couldve worked the current design a little bit and come up with something better than that...its starting too look like a combination of a EVO and IS300..hopefully those are just chopped

Looks like a riced up civic.....

Except it has more hp, better handling and costs way more, I think about 10 or 15 grand more than the civic.

hell yes! ive never seen a ZeroFighter in person, the best ive seen
is the Tommi Makinen Edition Full (complete with ECUs, titanium turbo, the worx) altho the ZF looks like has a better 0-60 figure...

Yea...well, I just looove the way this car looks, its beautiful. The front skirt, the rims...the bodywork on the sides...if it was normal, then I'd have sex with that car.


Posted by Inertia on Sep-06-2002 05:44:

i agree, that car is an amazing machine...
i think its th best value you can get for a car

4x4 full time
its a sedan
can output 300HP nicely
looks fookin sweet
is worth well under 35k

its like perfect...

Posted by TranceAllstar on Sep-06-2002 22:26:

yea the STI should be here soon and be under 35k, but it will be watered down a lot or some from the original
