Default Subaru kicks VeeDubb in the nuts....

EDIT: ***scroll down for pics of 2008 Impreza hatchback ONLY***

:eek3:























:chuckles:
maybe thats why VW started crashing their Jetta...
:chuckles:
Subaru has used a new full-page ad to take a shot at rival Volkswagen and its “Fast” advertising campaign. The television commercials and print ads show a single shot of the Subaru WRX Sti with the caption, “When you go 0-60 in 4.7 seconds, you don’t need a made-up character called Fast. It’s what makes a Subaru, a Subaru.” One must wonder if Subaru was a little peeved by Volkswagen’s Unpimp Your Auto ad campaign, which mock hood scoops and spoilers.

o snap.. i guess Subaru really has VW by the nuts..
the 2008 impreza will be Hatchback ONLY in 3 or 5 door varity


The 2008 Subaru Impreza will target the Volkswagen Golf GTI, according to a report by AutoExpress magazine. The article indicates that a sedan model will no longer be offered, and selection will be limited to three- and five-door hatchbacks. Entry-level models will get a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated boxer engine with 170 horsepower. A more powerful STi turbocharged model will offer 300 horsepower. According to the report, the car will be quite similar to the Subaru B5-TPH Concept, but with a slightly more typical rear end. The glass hatch, however, remains.
