Basically came across this pic on the net, after inducing vomit i thought id share it with you guys so you too could share the pain (or maybe just run out and rub up against your 8's out of joy)...

Enjoy

momo

Cool. Is that Subbie used as a battling ram? Looks like some kind of mutation occured.

Daemonicus

Thats just obscene, but who cares? it's not a Mazda

chrism

ewww

Spin9k

Eeeek! A subi with terminal skin CANCER! or is it baracle-subi-crab-eyes?

Wurmfist

I don't think there are enough headlights...

Zorro

i just threw up again

khtm

I don't get what the problem is? In rally racing, cars always have like 100 headlights...

Rhawb

Problem is, that may be the ugliest damn headlight pod I've ever seen (and headlight pods ain't pretty). Even those big arched ones that mount in the middle of the grill look better than that setup.

Ajax

i dont even know what to say about this.. it's just.. wrong..

Intrigue 8

^ then i guess u havent seen a lot of wrc cars

th1rd3y3

Agreed. There are *gasp* racing events that those lights are useful and even needed. Now if that's a daily driven car, it's a different story. If you've never seen a WRC event I'd advise you do some research before you just blindly bash cars in sheer ignorance.

Ajax

I've never seen any w/lights that looked THAT stupid.

Intrigue 8

^ they get crazier than that but its needed when wrc racing at night.

juikster

Now if that car had 8 long legs it would pass as a killer mother black widow.

Guess Subaru is experimenting with layering on the ugly. It's like a tootsie roll pop of ugly.

"CRUNCH!...Ewwww. Mommy, there's an STi in the middle..."

Rhawb

I've seen plenty of rally cars in general, not just WRC cars, and I maintain that that is the ugliest variant of a headlight pod that I've ever seen. Headlight pods are capable of being quite hideous, but this one is the mack-daddy of ugly.

rotten42

I really got to wonder how a person suddenly goes...."**** man, I'm going to stick some big ugly headlights on top of my other lights. That will look so cool!".

WTF?

Zorro

Rhawb - Couldnt agree more! Seen many a WRC, and many a hideous headlight pod, i just think this model looks hideous..

*HIDEOUS*

zoom44

its not done to look cool. its done so that they can see where they are going at night. its used in racing cars like that. ugly doesn't matter. Ive seen races where they use them. and remember in racing if it wasn't useful it wouldn't be there. it would be gone to save weight.


now if that is someones daily driver and they never race it at night than its completely overboard
:D

Gambit

So is that Ike's car?

Ellar

It's functional in that you may not see the deer with the lights, but that's because they're all hiding behind trees with their front hooves over their eyes.

zoom44

now thats damn funny!!!!! i actually LOL and nearly woke up my sonHEHEHHEE

Razpewton

To be perfectly honest, I wouldn't mind a setup like that. Not on the 8, but as an equalizer 2nd car. Some of the four-wheelin rednecks around here have those 200,000 candle-power halogen headlights with the 150,000 candle-power fog lights.

Give me a billion candle-power rig like that, let bubba pass me on the highway, then WHAM-O! arc-weld his ears to the back of his head. :D :D :D

mikeb

kinda a overkill
