    WTF is with the new Subaru's?

    I went to a Subaru track day on saturday (they were nice enough to let 15 non-suby's in) and noticed for the first time that the newer cars are FUGLY.

    The front end is all screwed up like a Tribeca or something. Yuck.

    The new chief designer at Subaru was a former designer for Alfa Romeo.

    Turn that new Subaru center grille upside-down, and you'll notice a striking similarity...

        Eh, new BMW's aren't all bad. The Z4 is badass, the Z4 M Roadster is even better, the new 3-series is growing on me, and the new 5-series would be perfect if it weren't for those fucking drag-queen eyelash looking headlights.

            I was just driving behind of what I thought was an e90... as I got closer, I was shocked to see that it was the new Saab 9-5

              ^ What he said.

              The alfa designer came in and beat some of their cars with the ugly stick, especially the WRX's. I </3 the new STi front end..fugly.

                  I actually like the new Subs. Dont know why but I think the new impreza front end works, but the Tibeca looks like a beached whale.

                      So you're saying the E90 looks like a Saab 9-5 ;) That model has been around for like 8 years with very little revising.
