Here's an exclusive review on the 2008 Subaru Impreza 2.5i, with details on the design and performance, as well as other features. Also included is a photo gallery with the car.

"Subaru today unveiled the all-new Subaru Impreza 2.5i at the New York International Auto Show. With new, more sophisticated styling and two new body styles, a 4-door sedan and a 5-door model, the Impreza 2.5i breathes new life into the compact performance market. The new Impreza model takes a giant leap forward in terms of comfort and utility, while delivering the handling, performance and Subaru Symmetrical AWD that made the original Impreza such a success.

Does look like the Mazda. It also looks like a Kia Spectra. What in the world is Subaru thinking? I'm glad I picked up an 07' first.

Trouble is gaza they wont compete with these two-pricing`s gonna be crucial to subaru but youve gotta wonder who`s done the market research on this one i mean do subaru even know what their customers are after.................obviously not,i think theyre relying on ppl buying the car for its capabilities not looks which maybe for a few sales will work, im not doubting it`l be a good drive but youve gotta get ppl in the showroom first.

I thought the original post was a joke at first.

Personally I feel the Impreza models have got progressively worse since the 2000 model, but that's a giant leap backward.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Me too. It does looka bit dull compared to the rest of the impreza series.
