Looks as good as they can make it look. I approve. Especially if it handles well.

while at the suby dealership i scoped out the WRX sedan with the premium options package. It had dual exhaust tips too. I dont know if they all come with this or not. It looked pretty cool (the exhaust that is, im still mixed on the car overall)

The tail lights bug me. too square and vertical on the sedan.

Dealership monkeys said the STi will be in in december. Ill go check it out then.

One thing for sure is that the new WRX looks like crap in lighter colors like white/silver. In darker colors however it looks ok or even promising. Just looking at it there's just too many steps back on upgrades they introduce in previous generations. The WRX should get more promising every year, not have goodies taken away.

Honestly though I think subaru made the best WRX (non STI) in 06. You got the 4/2 pot brakes and aluminum control arms, and the 2.5L motor.

Speaking of dealer stories:
I asked the dealer for a quote on brake pads cause my fronts are starting to look a bit warn and they told me 150 for front and 80 for the rear. I almost **** a brick when I heard that. The guy told me that brembo apparently makes the subaru 4/2 pots so the pad prices are sky high.
