wow.. that's ridiculous how much that saab resembles a wrx wagon... they should of kept the design more along the lines of the 9x concept they had a couple years ago...

Seriously cool car! Mating the quirky cool of SAAB with the fast but ugly Impreza is pure genuois if you ask me. I love prezas but the styling is just sad. Theyre cool looking because you know that lies beneath, but seriously... one look at a burgundy senior-spec 1.6 on 14"s and your eyes will burn for days! Now, if only SAAB would bring the car to europe and perhaps give us a chippable low pressure low hp version to ease the tax, it would be perfect.

If you havent tried it, go test drive a late spec preza! I am just as amazed at how it seems to flow through corners and float above broken tarmac. It just hustles along like you'd be at half the speed in any normal car. And then.. whan you build up the confidence enough to start to lean on it... I can feel a grin comming on just from thinking about it

It's a little sad not to also get the brutal SAAB 2.3 16V engine - just a boostcontroller, injectors and a turbo and it would have been hello reliable 350hp

*sigh* And prezas used to look so cool.... :roll:

as of two days ago, i can sure vouch for the performance and handling of the Impreza turbos..
grip is amazing and, well.. it bloody flies!!
