You're all complaining that the new WRX looks too Korean. When has it not looked Korean? It looked so Korean that Kia even added a bodykit to their Rio and hey presto - Kia Rio Sti. The WRX has never been a looker, even when it's got a ridiculous ironing board spolier and bonnet scoop, you can still see the "I'm from a factory in Seoul" hiding behind all that makeup. Some have been uglier than others, but there is no such thing as a good looking WRX. It's an oxy-moron. The WRX was and is never been about the looks, it has always been about ugly, turbo-charged, awd performance for a bargain basement price. Nobody ever saw one and thought "omg, what a gorgeous looking car, I have to have one." They looked at the power and stats. You want something that looks good buy an Alfa Romeo.You want something that goes round a track quick get a WRX. But don't kid yourself that what you're driving is an attractive car.

i reckon the 05 WRX was a pretty good looking car! and so was the 00 back in the day!

i have grown to really like the betty STi's (but definitely not WRX), and now the sedan just looks POO!

zed are you smoking crack? the classic wrx's are hot, and the 03-05s are very sexy! and majority of the sti's of all models are hot except betty.

oh btw, the new sedan and the hatches are both homo.

Ok, I understand taste is very subjective. But with the WRX you really need to look at the base model. I have a fine example shown below. Now I think we can all admit what we have here is a very ordinary looking automobile. By simply placing a bonnet scoop and spolier on it, you have not magically transformed it into a 'hawt' lookin' sports car. You have what appears to be a $13'990 special from Korean (via Indonesia) with body kit!

you need to get off the crack!! GC8 had all the looks that did it for me, performance was a given. An Alfa... wtf are you on! You'd be the sort to say the FG falcon looks great too right
