I used to be a Subaru man, had 6 Impreza's over 10 years and loved them. Lost interest when the hatch came out but this new saloon is really nice.
I like yours a lot, apart from maybe the wheels look a bit small?
I wish the exhaust tailpipes stuck out a bit further it makes the bumper look too big almost aftermarket.

Lovely car.

Shame about the wheels though, needs a set of Volk TE37s. smile

That looks pretty special. I'd just grown to the hatch look too!

Oh yes very nice! Was it easy to import?

Why oh why did Subaru UK not offer these in WR blue mica!?

It's finding one that you can buy that is the problem, a Subaru dealer wont let you have one for export!

Oh right, how come? Did you have to get someone to buy it for you and then import it privately?

Lovely car thumbup

I think they wanted to get away from the image of the blue Impreza with gold wheels...(cough - the car that made them in this country, cough).

I don't like the blue wheels, but it would look stunning with anthracite, black or gold wheels on it. It really is a gorgeous car!

I like that, although I'm not 100% sure on the wheels.

Is it me or do those wheels look a tad small?.

It's still a lovely car though!, any plans for it?.
