It looks good but it doesn't at all look like an Impreza should.
Then what should a Subaru look like?
Where is the design correlation between any of those designs? So what should it look like? It shouldn't have to look like anything.

Until they made the 5 door and everyone realized how much better it looked.
It's nice-looking, but it looks it should be something else.... not an Impreza. I just hope the STi version is stupidly angry-looking with a great big (but fitting) 'fuck-off' rear spoiler.
I'm always reluctant to comment on new Subarus because I initially hate all of them, and then over the next year they steadily grow on me and I become quite fond of them.

Subaru has always been all over the place with their designs, and that's what I like about them. They trying new and different things to see what works and what doesn't. That's also the point of the concept is to gauge the publics reaction. As for me, I really like it. It does look Legacy-sized, but that's just something to expect these days. I still prefer the older Subaru's (which I once saw as horrid, but now I absolutely adore). They're trying to shed their "quirkiness". In the early 2000's, Subaru only sold about 200,000-250,000 vehicles in the US.....so they are a very small company. They're trying to gain marketshare, and to do so they need a more widely accepted design, which is what this is. I'm almost positive the STi version will be epic (and speaking of which, I made a little doodle in Photoshop of what it could look like)
