    It's not. It's the Saab 9-2X. About £3k more than the impreza, but you get more toys and a saab interior. Styling was done simply by crashing an impreza wagon into the back of a 9-3. Both brands are now under the GM umbrella...

    well at least the 'little' saab isn't a vectra in drag anymore. still think the classic 900 turbo convertible is my favourite saab ever though. they're almost affordable now too.
    cheers

    Problem is, 700 bhp or not, it still looks like a Saab :p

    IMO it looks a lot better than any other Saab or Subaru. Quite nice actually.

    The base model is only available in the States just now, and we have to import them via the grey market into Sweden! Arrh quite fancy one, kinda funky looking.

    Any idea when this will be released in the UK?

    I'm due to change my 9 3 in August, but this looks like much more fun, plus I don't like the non hatchback 9 3 as much ( a complete pita for getting the bikes in and out)

    Christ.. you guy really have no taste do you?? :p

    How can anyone think any Impreza or Evo looks better than a Saab ?? The Impreza in particular has always just looked like a mildly kitted up Mazda to me. The Evo just gets worse with every incarnation. Like a big version of a typical Barrymobile.. a Chavs wet dream !!


    Next you'll be telling me you think the cars on this site look good !! :eek:

    maybe a little less in your face for me. forget the bodykits i'll spend my dosh under the bonnet. about 600 bhp would do me just fine. oh yes and another 250 nitrous on top just for special occasions.
    cheers
