Met Petter Solberg last night at 06 STI unveiling

[LOAF]

Was a great time.. and as far as the 06.. not to bad in person..

I personally see potential with the new front.. add a lip, and some fog lights and it may look ok.. what I don't like is the rear.. the lights are odd, and there is this huge subaru emblem on the back.. which I am not to crazy about.. again just small cosmetic tweaking..

Not sure if you venture to the other forums.. but I will post some pics, some time this weekend, but for now chech out NASIOC.. tri-state forum..

Here are a few links that cover both your questions..
