frumpy

I thought the 2.5L engine was for everybody, not just the US?

It’s like an ugly faced chick, with the greatest body.

Only the US gets the 2.5L, not really sure why since the 2.0L in the other markets make the same HP/torque. Subaru has to use the 2.0L engine somewhere in the world in actual production to meet WRC rules which limit engines to 2.0L max displacement.

continued…that’s also why the EVO engines are 2.0L

I like.

Subaru has always done things a little different you either like it or hate it.

Been waiting to see what the New STi was going to look like. At first wasn’t thrilled about the hatch but I’m starting to like it.

Come on Subaru please at least offer a dual-clutch gearbox. This should be standard equipment on the STi….

Subaru buyers are fed up with poor quality, dependibilty and reliability and have already jumped ship for better offerings like the Chevy Equinox and Pontiac Torent. Sorry Subaru, you had your opportunity for greatness when you were under the GM umbrella. Now your just another **** building joke of a car brand.

What a laugh people are going to have when this POS hits the dealerships! Hate to be a Subaru salesman!

I’d pick the WRX over the Evo, but neither is really the car for me at this stage in my life

JJT, a Pontiac G6 GXP is still better than both of those. That is the one you need to buy my friend

I’m going lambda!

ROFLMFAO!!!

It’s all i can say

JJT, a Pontiac G6 GXP is better than the yugo on straight aways and corners. Its the one of choice for poorboy posers who really want a WRX but cant afford it.

we already know its gonna be ugly so what the point of a ****ing teaser???

did he seriously bring up the equinox in his argument?

HA HA. OH WOW.

i donno about ugly anymore this teaser shot looks pretty badass

Definately want to see this when it’s released. Like the WRX hatch, it’s growing on me. Would actually want want one more than the previous versions, and being a Subaru, they will be very reliable.

STI is short for STInks which is a known trait of all Subarus

1487_GM_SALES, I do not know what you are smoking but you should share with the rest of the forum. Subaru is not plagued with quality, reliability problems. While the new Impreza Sedan looks like ****,I’m sure it’s built well and is a great example of high performance. The new STI wagon looks a lot better than the sedan. Discredit the new Impreza’s styling, not the brand’s reputation. In my honest opinion, Subaru builds just as (if not more) reliable cars than Honda or Toyota–I should know–I’ve owned two Subarus and never had a single problem. What do you drive? a rental Malibu?

PERFORMANCE ON HIGH

that gm sales is always a joke, he is just so funny

nono no, its still ugly

It looks pretty good considering you can’t see it!

Yes the STi is available as a 2.0L for rally spec. Americans tend to think more liters is a better car which is my guess as why they have 2.5 for the US.

The WRX has always been an ugly car. Anyone who likes it does so for pride or appreciation for it’s technology. Nobody buys a WRX for style or anyone who does doesn’t have style.

The G6 GXP is a whole step below the STi in terms of performance, and whole different kind of car. Really the copmparable car to the STi has always been the EVO and maybe the S4 quattro. The SPEED3 is pretty similar too, but that’s FWD…

I hope they make a sedan version of the new STI. I hate hatches

if their 2.0 liter will make as much as our 2.5 liter, than im assuming the 2.5 will have a lot more future potential.

It got beat up for being ugly and now its face is all swollen.

Evo X or BMW 135i me.

True, it’s about the performance, not looks, with the STI which has really come up short compared to the EVO’s handling, steering and braking.

I like the wagon/hatch look of this new one, with it’s bulging fenders and overdone body kit. The STI has a lot of true perforance parts and Suby’s have always been mod friendly, so it should be a success.

They must have carried over the entire powertrain from last year, still 300hp 300tq???

The tail lights look more rounded, which is better, not best.

sti imprezza= butter face

haha

Still as dark and ugly as the first two images. Why even bother?

oh this car is going to be great. kinda iffie about how america is going to take to this power wagon hatch thing but subaru has a track record for delivering dependable and fun wagons. so i say bring it!
oh and 1487GM. keep your mouth shut until you have something that can rival this STI. cuz that HHR SS (Hurse?) is not going to cut it my man!

Hey I’ve got an idea- lets take a car thats following has been increasing exponentially over the past 5 years, and completely redesign it, and in doing so alienate every single one of the cars fans.

**** this piece of ****.

Those dark room teasing is like a dancer in strip joint: in full day light you will not look twice at her.

The reason for the bigger engine in the US is for our lowoctane gas and the fact that we dont Rally. Europes FIA rules state that cars have to be under 2.0 litres and produced into certain numbers.

It looks pretty good considering you can’t see it!

hahaha thats pretty funny.

autonutt, that`s the truth for sure, when my girl brings her friends home from the strip club i am surprised at how skanky some of those bitcbhes are in the light. hahahaah that was a great comparison and made me laugh a good one. thanks.

will there be an article with each ne teaser image?

GM_SALES, how far deep is GM’S **** in your mouth? The Chevy Equanox!?!? The Pontiac….well, anything (everything Pontiac sucks)!??

You break new grounds on ignorance.

i still think its an ugly piece of **** !!!!!!!!!

strider44 the **** is so far down it actually comes out his ass.

wow! its like hes getting raped with no lube. talk about ownage! i guess thats what happens when your someone’s bitch!

I saw this one at the streets being tested, i’m 100% sure it was this one

GM sales as a GM fan myself, please shut your mouth. You make us all look bad. All the vehicles you mentioned are not even close to being in the same class as the STi. Equinox is an CUV and GXP is a mid-size car. Both are significantly larger than STi and built for a different purpose. GM doesn’t make a rally car plain and simple. This competes with the Mistu EVO and hat’s it.

The Audi is a sort of competitor only in that its AWD, but the RS4/S4 are not rally vehicles. GM may have a spiritual competitor of sorts when the AWD CTS-V comes out, but again that’s a mid-size luxury vehicle, not a rally car

I’m pretty sure that GM would be embarrassed to have GM_sales promoting them.

I can’t help but wonder if Toyota secretly sold the controlling stake in Subaru to Kia-Hyundai, judging from the design!

Speaking of styling, I’ve got a little impromtu poll going at ridestory.com. Post your comments of what you think about the styling of the new STi.

I might just pass up the GTI for this bad boy
