Well, this was posted on another forum:

'08 STi spotted at Germany’s Nürburgring

ARTICLE LINKY

I think a flat black thru-n-thru version would be pretty sweet.

teh ring + blacked out STI = WIN.

Well I suppose I found my next car. W/ the STI wagon looking like that I can definately talk my self into going further into debt.

MUST KEEP WALLET IN POCKET!
MUST NOT THINK OF BUYING NEW STI!
MUST BE HAPPY WITH WHAT I HAVE!

(I think I have a new mantra to chant)

Sirwilliam's concept is the fucking bomb!!! That hatchback crap will never get any of my $ that's for sure.

Oh, now that blacked out STI is looking HOT... I need to keep saying the same thing now....

MUST KEEP WALLET IN POCKET!!!!!

yes, followed by "in the UK."

it's highly unlikely we will see a diesel powered Subaru for some time, if ever.

Should be followed by is effin lame. If there's a sedan sti then I might be tempted to trade my 05. But give me a break Subaru. Make an STi that looks good! not like a damn grocery getter.

Some newer pics found but not confirmed:

Hmm...dual exhaust and IDrive. Not looking too good. Maybe it will get better. All we have is our hope.

Mr Kleen · Post by **Mr Kleen** » Wed Sep 05, 2007 1:26 pm

test mule, or just an Impreza with STi parts? no matter, the Impreza is dead to me.

way better looking than the wrx, but i'm still not sold. must see in person (and must see with different wheels/taillights/grill).

drwrx · Post by **drwrx** » Thu Sep 13, 2007 9:13 am

Now we're getting somewhere!

I like the dual twin-tip exhaust, the flared fenders, the wing and the front fascia. Now I'm definitely thinking "Hot Hatch!"

Note the dyno chart, nearly 350 hp. The torque is measured in kgm (kilograms per meter) and comes out to around 325 in ft/lbs.

And no, I'm still not loving the clear taillamps. But hey, that's what ruby lith is for. And the grille still isn't there for me yet, but I'm sure that can be remedied cheaply and easily.

nice HP/TQ ratings. too bad I can't afford an STi.

Post by **Sabre** » Thu Sep 13, 2007 9:36 am

^^^ Better!

I think the new WRX could make numbers just like this and more, for very little money. I think it could also look just like it as well, except perhaps for the fender flares.

Mr Kleen · Post by **Mr Kleen** » Thu Sep 13, 2007 9:50 am

fender flairs are the only thing saving the 08 Impreza design from FAIL.

I like to think I'm a function over form guy but there's only so much I can take.

in 2008 and in my price range, I'd be looking long and hard at the Lancer RallyArt.
