SWEET!!!!!!

That 2nd pic looks just mean.

Kitsune · 12-10-2002, 11:32 PM

At least the current car is ugly in a mother can love it way, this new one is just plain beat it with the ugly stick till it bleads ugly.

100% agreed.

If I was the test driver, I wouldn't care....

MattDell · 12-11-2002, 05:00 AM

So they're going back to 555, huh?

They've been "back" with BAR/BAT since the start of the 2002 season.

Thx Jamie for the pic link. I might have to wait until the new New Age comes out. I don't care for WRB but that STi looks as Mr. Feldstead would say "the dog's bollocks"...especially in tarmac spec.

Doesn't look to shabby in its' gravel guise as well...

Hey, I just noticed, no roof vent. I think a roof vent would make it look better. More purposeful.

EJ20K · 12-11-2002, 09:46 AM

Seems that the WRC isn't using the mega huge STi intercooler scoop, instead it is using the more "sensible" one

more purposeful? its a bloody WRC car, it doesn't get more purposeful then that!

Idjiit · 12-11-2002, 10:50 AM

Hey, what's up with this?

I thought Mannisenmaki was out for good?

jblaine · 12-11-2002, 11:13 AM

That was hung as a reminder to the other drivers.

And yes, the new car is ugly as sin.

Subie Gal · 12-11-2002, 11:38 AM

sorry but that's just mean looking

i love it...
fenders are wicked!!
and the new grill/emblem set up is bad arse!

no..... i'm sold... i have to have one

oh hey and i'm sure the actual rally car will be fitted w/a roof scoop... unless it's got a.c.

i'm sure these are simply the test cars.... first in production maybe??

I like the front end dead on look, but I just hate the slope of the nose as seen here:

Blah..

the hood scoop does not need to be big,The scoop on the WRC car is just for looks, The intercoller is located behind the grill/emblem with the raditor below it. and I will have to agree with SubieGal I LIKE IT and I HAVE TO HAVE IT!!!!

now I have to convince my wife

Gspot · 12-11-2002, 12:55 PM

from swrt.com
"7,8 for door number plates"
Petter Solberg will carry the number '7' in the 2003 WRC while his team mate Tommi Makinen will take number '8'.

I agree 100% I like it better than the '02-03 style and prefer the WRC smaller hood scoop too as it was my only real complaint.

Jamie can I drive yours if you get one???

Italiano · 12-11-2002, 03:35 PM

I love this new "face lift" Impreza! , hey to each his own, I remember my reaction to the current design, and i really know how i feel about the face lift -

Where do i Sign!

Idjiit · 12-11-2002, 03:51 PM

Errr... Last year's Impreza WRC didn't have roof scoops either... Not sure what the fuss is about? They've got a different system going now...

lark6 · 12-11-2002, 04:21 PM

I'm not sure about that, Idjiit. Early in the '02 season they had roof vents, then after Acropolis and before Safari they disappeared. Anyone have any idea why?
