Damn HOT looking beast...and should have some awesome performance figures with reduced weight and even lower cg.

What a shame it's only available in Japan...

Most factory wheels are shite...that's easily fixed though ;)

Full suede interior including over the dash should be a nice touch and improve the interior on these which is a weak area for them...

This is one o/a very nice and desirable current model Impreza :)

+1 on the wheels looking pretty average

rest of the car is porn though!

Only thing that (to me) looks out of place is the oversize rear wing. The standard "smaller" wing suits the car.
Like the slotted front guards . . . and really don't mind the wheels. Generally I find that these days upper market model cars have pretty decent factory alloys. Would prefer a single larger diameter pipe on each side. 4 cylinders = 4 pipes is a bit over the top.

Not bad....not bad at all !

the wheels are ok...maybe a little lower profile would be better.

..."just as long as they don't have a problem with the fact that it will be available exclusively with a five-speed automatic transmission"...

I think most people (who would be interested or keen on one) would have a problem that it's only available in Japan...:)

Even with huge amounts of carbon, it's still not gonna fix the way it looks. Never liked, never will.

22B is the best looking Rex of all time.

Man, they can make that car out of titanium as far as I'm concerned and it would still look like a failed Kia prototype :D
