    wow...are they saying its not gonna be on the 07s, or are they changing it for 08, which wouldnt be a surprise based on past models where they do a facelift every 2 years

    Well, it's also going to be the 5 year anniversary in 2007, and someone was telling me that there will be some changes that will be in effect...
    I was getting real used to the look also...

    thank god, ugliest grille evar! (no offense 06 owners)

    wow my prediction came true: "Subaru's chief designer, Andreas Zapatinas, has resigned, effective the end of last month, but it is believed he was fired."

    prediction was: i bet someone will be fired over that design. (even though it goes on to say, the design was there before him)

    well it seems like they are on the pulse of their faithful following and not just numbers....they are gonna redesign despite not actually losing any sales numbers.....that has to say something...I'm thinking a more fast forward-bugeye look...maybe a front mount (doubt it) but definitely bigger fogs? :sx:

    Bug eyes and big fogs hooked me into the suby...but there's something about the '06/'07 styling that kept pushing me to look...mysterious, edgy but refined, hungry to eat another car in its path, not sure. Hard to explain it, but I love the "propeller grille"...car companies take flack all the time when the do a major redesign - some love it, some hate it...look at BMW...lots of complaints when they redesigned the 7 and then followed suit with 5 and 3, but those cars are everywhere...

    I'll be honest, when the first production shots of the '06 Imprezas came out, I did a double take. But once I saw it in person, I was hooked and the rest is history...

    Oh well, my rant is over. Bah humbug to the propeller grille haters! :D

    still partial to the "bug eyes" myself....think they should make a sleeker version, maybe more of a wedge design like the mercedes.

    i think it's gonna be a futurearshTIC bug eye with big fogs and super bright led headlights with nice touch of taillight led's with more curves to the body and maybe the doors they need to open someother way.. not the suside way nor the normal way no lambo's but a different way maybe give it a coupe look with 2 door hiden or something.. will look way sexy
