This concept called the Subaru WRC Concept will be making it’s public debut at the 2007 Frankfurt International Motor Show next month. It gives us a preview of what the Subaru Impreza STi will look like when it is released in 2008.
The Subaru WRC Concept has twin exhaust pipes on the rear – one on each side, however the production version is said to get quad tail pipes, with the twin pipe setup for rally-going versions of the car only. It will have a wider track than the standard Impreza and Impreza S-GT.
One more rear shot after the jump.

Ugliest Subaru Impreza to-date.
Man, still looks like crap after all that body modding…
is this a way to win the wrc? as the other manufactures who won after the “mitsubishi era” were all hatchback.. and not sedan…
still…no ummphh!!
If win the WRC champion next year, then maybe got some ummphh!!!
i don mind the looks for now since its the fact how the new impreza look like… besides its impreza! all we have to see is the coming WRC season, see how the hatchback version perform on the rally stages…
It’s a matter of love or hate.
I love it.
@familyman: thats not a sedan.
Suddenly this car makes Hyundai Accent WRC looks much better…
a good looking race/rally car is a car which wins rallies, if this car can better the current impreza wrc in terms of result, it will still be beautiful, despite looks…here’s solberg hoping…
This is not the real Subaru. It is actually Sulama. :-)
Sulama..lolz..anyway, I think it looks OK, except for the rear spoiler, that looks like sh*t. First look reminded me of a Civic.
hey this looks like a gen2 lah. wow even subaru copy us! just kidding.
anyway i think 4 subaru they dnt care abt looks just perf.
I heard the impreza had to suffer ugliness because of the dirt-dynamics. Dirt is much much more denser than air (aerodynamics). This design actually lets it cut through dust easier
with this design… even at low speed, the rear will give better force/grip.. comparing to the sedan rear.
drifting is not the key to win a race … but grip. it lets you clear the corner faster.. With shorter tail,. you can cut the outside corner a little more… hmm.. not bad laa.
it looks better dis way .
This time.. the EVO X wins :)
J, sorry to say, 2007/2008 is not the year for Mitsubishi. It’s either will be Seb’s and Citroen or Gronholm and Ford. I’d still put my money on Seb. Solberg still struggle with his Impreza. He’s been struggling like, forever! Still waiting for a 3 way dog fight between Seb, Marcus and Solberg. Sure is entertaining!
This Subaru doesn’t look too bad for me. Ok la. As long as it’s not in standard cosmetic. Now, that’s an issue of fugliness!
much much better from the current version
hope this could tapau focus/306/skoda
so on behalf of orient, wish this donald duck good luck!
rear look like transformers face….
that what technology look like , see how it go for new season to race for..
Subaru the one….
quad tail pipes? better put it on Evo X……
Looks good to me.
front grill looks like some old SAAB.. i miss the time where the scooby are sedan.
James May will have a field day with this one. Imagine if you took off those aerodynamics. Eeuwww!!
They just want follow citroen and Ford Focus.. Hachback WRC … easy take corner..
that’s why new version Impreza designed hatchback for their new version…they really want to win WRC…their sedan cannot compete with Ford..Citroen…Peugeot using hatchback body….we can see Mitsubishi also cannot give hard competition in WRC..better they using their Sportback concept
w/ this new model if peter still can run well… sur ehv to ask him to tapau liew!!
