The press embargo will be lifted on May 1st, then we should start seeing some press about the new STi. My first impression was, what a great car. But I keep hearing bad things about the new gearbox and the new motor on the Subaru boards. Time will tell. I do think it's a very neat car and a worthy successor (or partner) with the R, but not sold on the reliabilty of it yet, especially given the current WRX's propensity to munch gearboxes and Subaru's unwillingness to repair them under warranty.
