hope they do a bit more to the GTR i think it looks far to similar to the 350z and not enough like the past models i like the old shape and a bit of a throw back i think would be great. don't mind the sti think it is a nice concept and they will scale it back a bit for final production but i think it is a good step forward in design.

yeah specially the GT-R and for the engine car and driver don't even know the engine either it should be a 4.5 V8 from the Q45 or the current one VQ30DETT run in JGTC that it was in the GT-R last year and now on the Z that took its place. it's a 3.0 V6 Twin Turbo. they might use the 3.5 but i dont think the 3.5 would last with 400 hp. i know that HKS has a turbo for the 350Z for 7k and only running 7psi.

Ohhh, the STi looks pretty good but the Skyline is missing something. As bmwmpower said looks too much like a 350 Z

STi looks like a streamlined piece of shit, i dunno about the GT-R, considering it has to be based of the G35 not a bad job.

i'm sorry, but as of now, I don't like either of them...although I definitely can see the new STi growing on me...and the GT-R better be one hell of a performer if it's gonna look like that

The sti almost gave me a heart attack. It looks like hell. Since I've seen a pic of the gtr already it doesn't affect me as much, but it does look a whole lot like the 350z. The shape is the same. All they did is change the rims and front of the car by the looks of it.

I really don't like Subaru's new design. The front is so ugly It's like an Alfa Romeo.

Skyline looks good although the STI is a bit more challenging. I reckon it's a look that will grow on you.

Will the STI get any more power, or is it just cosmetic changes?

STi has some sort of charm - i like it, the GT-R is brutal as usual.

someone had posted that pic on NASIOC.com and all the Subaru of America Corp. reps chimed in saying that this is a rumor that wasstarted and that Subaru has no plans of making that car.
If it does look like that, I will never buy a new subie, but keep transplanting the newer better engines and drivetrains into the classic impreza's

The picture of the new STI looks exactly like the extreme model in WRC3 (video game). I doubt it is a real project: they just changed the other ugly one for a somehow less ugly one . I still hope that when they change it next time, they move back to the first impreza they have built: the best one
