There is something sexy about the original Impreza they just have not captured in the modern cars. while they have gotten better it's a lot like the original M3 the newer versions just miss the original Boy racer "I'm gonna tear your face off" look.

 

I think its more the JDM look they have. They look very JDM, where as the new ones arent anything special anymore. When is the next event? I hope its on a day there nothing something else going on at the same time. I wanna stick around for a whole event for once and do some ride alongs for once

 

Couldnt agree more!!!! And I think Mars is right, the car more resembles its Japan brother. Even when it came out in the states it didnt look like anything else out there at that time.

When I go in the garage I look at the STi and say looks good, but then look over and the RS kinda takes my breath away. Even the pics of the RS just look amazing and my Sti looks like a car drving on dirt. lol

well the 93-96 were very typical of what was around at the time, or at least the ones we got, softer edges, could have been confused for a Toyota if you looked at it quickly enough.. it was not until the 2.5 RS came to the party with it's shopping cart (in 1998 standards) rear wing and Ridiculous Hood that the car even got a second look. then in 1999 when the Front air dam from the STI cars made it onto the 2.5RS it truly became quite a looker. which amazes me, put a big wing, a hood scoop and vents, and a low front air dam on most cars and I would comment about how you must have ran through pep boys with a crap magnet. But in the RS it just looks right, so complete, so sorted. dare I say only the 22B looks better.

 

Yeah, but it's no SVT contour.
