2006 Impreza: Up Close And Personal (56K Warning)
The new Impreza was officially launched in Japan
over the weekend, so today I took a stroll to the local Subaru offices to check it out. These pics were taken at the Shinjuku offices. Enjoy!

I took this pic from the brochure. Looks like the base model 1.5i will have the 'bug-eyes'-era taillights Picked up some useless JDM goodness too! |

It all depends on the person trying to speak. It depends on their level of knowledge of the Japanese language. English-speaking people trying to learn Japanese tend to use English grammar. Japanese and English grammar are polar opposites. That's why "Engrish" is so funny. So yeah, sometimes it sounds funny when I hear yanks, aussies or brits trying to speak Japanese...especially with a heavy accent. I can get away with being Japanese because I am Asian, and I speak Japanese with a Japanese accent..the only problem is, I'm not 100% fluent. The only times it helps is when I want to go to a 'Japanese-only' bar where foreigners aren't allowed. |

Silly question but why do JDM badges use english instead of chracters?
I'm not a fan of the rear emblem looks too ford-ish if you ask me. |

To Japanese people, 'Japanese' isn't cool. Also, they want to keep the names culturally universal. |

Wow. Too bad Subaru has decided to use their ugly mini-van as the new design language for their product line.
Plus, the headlights change the proportions of the car for the worse, making the rest of the car look bloated and/or flabby. The edginess/aggression of the current '04 are lost. Of course, the new 2.5L turbo in the WRX will be a nice change. Too bad the car ends up looking like a Mazda3...which is a nice car, but Subarus are purchased for their distinctive engineering and appearance, not their unobtrusive design style. |
