:eek:

If that's why the new STI is going to look like.....................I love it!!! GT-R looks like a 350Z and G35 put together. Couldnt they have been a little more creative?
|
so, so, so ugly.
"just when you thought it couldn't get worse"... |
Ummm the G35 is a Skyline, why would it look much different? I can't decide what I think of the new STi concept, I think it looks far less agressive than the last two body styles.
|
The STi looks like a Neon with a touch of Alfa Romeo.
|
The Subaru concept car that had the grill that one is modeled from was designed by a former Alpha Romeo designer. It's going to be another love it or hate it design for Subaru much like the Bugeye WRX, or even the SVX.
|
I'd rather buy a toyota echo...
|
I don't know, if they can get evo'esque performance out of that STI, then I would look long and hard at it, it has way more style than an evo, but, so does urkle.
|
We seem to be in the midst of another golden age of sports & gt cars. As a car enthusiast, I delight in all these great cars! But boy if the Skyline GT-R finally does make it to the US, I predict it will be a huge hit. It has a massive reputation and has been forbidden fruit for so long, that I’ll bet waiting lists will start to queue upon its official announcement.
|
What's up with the nose on the STi? No me gusta. Hopefully, that Skyline concept will stay on the concept floor. :rolleyes:
|
Damn!
If the new Sti looks like that, then I might consider it. The current one looks a bit too ordinary for my liking. (Sorry Ike if you're reading this) :) |
I read that article--those are not official drawings, so the replacements could embody some of those design elements--but they are not official.

When the R32 first came out in 1989 it could run with 911 Turbos, but by the time the R34 came out in 1999, it had mostly just gotten heavier with no real improvment in performance. C&D tested an R34, and they found it to be pretty overrated at that point. Plus, the competetion keeps getting stronger, like the CTS-V with 400hp and the next M3 (M4?) supposedly putting out similar numbers. The AWD G35x weighs nearly 3700lbs, and the rumored engine for the GT-R is a twin-turbo 3.3L VQ(VQ33DETT). Will they really be able to make enough performance with this to stick out in today's market? |
that's fuxking awesome. how sweet sti looks like... I'm wondering how do the guy who bought sti when c this pic feel about it. ha...

I'm no fan of the WRX, but that concept drawing looks sweet.

Wrx looks better than predecessors but more like an rsx-ish. Hope the interior matches the new looks. That Skyline gtr concept looks pretty good and shares a similar platform but is not a G35. It will cost significantly more than the g35, maybe even double, but you will get 400 horse. If it was M3 range, I'd pick the gtr. |

Here's another link with a WRC version rendition and a hideous concept Evo.
