I don't see where how it takes on any aggressive offroad/rally characteristics, but overall I like what it could end up really turning into.

Agreed, honestly after 05 I really didnt care for the looks. But this looks amazing

I saw this today at the NYC auto show. It is really impressive looking in person. However I can foresee a few design characteristics not making it into the final product.

Like the neon green muffler tips? I think those alone are worth the purchase price.

I don't really understand the neon green accents throughout the car honestly. I can see the headlights being changed as well as the third brakelight which is placed in the shark fin antenna looking thing being cut from the final product.

Idk I kinda like the current generation Impreza, and i get what your saying, but honestly I kinda hate all the new cars that come out bc i feel the manufactors are trying to hard to make them look futuristic and it kinda kills the look for me

The cars have always had bright accents (gold wheels, gold calipers, pink emblems, ect), albeit not as many as this new concept. I imagine they'll tone it down for the production but don't expect it to go away completely.

I bet the green will look sharp on a black car.
