Is the 2008 WRX the end of the WRX legend? I honestly cannot see it surviving much further when it looks as horrible as it does... And the STi version is going to need ALOT of improvements to compete the with the Evo..

Ok, ew.
It looks like some hell fat bastard sat on the bonnet and squished it all down.
Why are the new models of cars getting uglier?

Tomorrow doesn't look good either.
God must love stupid people, He made so many.
lol... Its revenge for all those WRX guys laughing at my car and saying mean jokes![]()
People always have harsh criticisms about cars when they are first released. Hell people een said the VE looked ****. Bet they have changed their minds now they have seen them in the flesh and have had the time to appreciate them
The bug-eyed rex was said to be as hideous as I bet everyone will say this is. But people still bought them and now they are 'normal'
Got any engine specs?
If I could keep the cars on the show floor then I would believe that it spells the end. Until such time.....
I don't think it looks that bad.
Besides, look how popular the AU Falcon was...
lol it looks like a mini camry!!!

It has lost it's uniqueness, much like the VE, this new Rex looks like a Camry platform with the nose from the Aristo and the sides and arse from Ford...
damn, the front looks like a liberty crossed with a VT, the back looks just like a hyundai elantra
I think it looks alright... my most hated car designs are still the Citroens and Mitsubishi 380
yeh like said most cars when they get shown to the public not many like but once there on the rds an have mods done thats when there true colours come out an ppl say yeh i like it now, i didnt like the ve when i 1st seen it but now i want one lol
Always In Construction Mode!!!!!![]()
the question is, whats it go like?
give it to some journos and see how long till they comment on it or prang it ^_^
attn Über geeks, i play Second life. Patrio Graysmark.
i saw that to, and a hyundai from the back. i know previous rexy's wernt that attractive but atleast they looked aggressive and looked like they would bite your head off, this looks like it would try and eat you finger with a knife and fork, dont like it
EDIT: jus saw this
Considering that the hatch is much lighter then previous models...it gave me a fair kick in the pants over the 07 STi
I would now say that the 08 WRX is as fast as the 07 STi but without the cool features that came with the STi like a 6spd over the 5spd, Switch operated cooling water jets for the intercooler and DCCD plus handling. But as for straight line, the 07 STi lost to the 08 WRX and the 08 STi was just !_WOW_!
I think the VE is o.k. but I don't think it is as much of a jump from the vs to the vt.
This car looks like a korean car which is sad, the WRX has a good history of a low price, high performance car.
I can't believe the guy talking about the thing isn't just hitting it with a hammer (people who watch top gear will know what I am talking about)![]()

Oh so the ugly hatchback monstrosity, isn't the WRX? Thank f*** for that.
The sedan looks better, but still looks like a Daewoo, or Hyundai.
the WRX is available in Hatch or sedan and the STI is only available in Hatch...at least thats how it is here inthe US.
not that that would have been a bad thing
<davy> remember when braveheart came out and everyone said you can't have mel gibson playing a scottish guy cuz it wont be realistic?
