Looks rather dull from all angles in my opinion.

All that plastic ...I can see that getting oxidized/gray and looking terrible in a few years.
And has anyone figured out why the rear bumper's plastic sticks out so much? Charles

So many underwhelming and/or ugly cars as of late. WRX, Integra, 4-series, M3/M4, iX, iM, 2-series sedan, EQS, EQE, Model Y, Model X, Bentaya, Grand Wagoneer, etc.
Just noticed majority of these turds are BMWs.

I do find the C8 a little awkward looking but it does have a presence. Certainly more attractive than the M4.

WRX: Never been a looker in its history and only usually appreciated some years later. Also, it won't be the first time they change the design a year or 2 after it was launched, remember how long bug eye or the beautiful hawk eye survived? Integra: It was always just a marketing exercise to bring excitement to the dead ILX line, to be fair, Honda knew better than to add type R behind the name BMWs: Dukec... Teslas: Elon... Bentley: They put the nail on themselves when VW build that chintzy grille and 4 bug eye lights with the first Continental in 2003. Benz: They rode the futurism design some time ago, i guess we are just old (It is 100 times easier to swallow than the BMW stuff though) Jeep: I have no comment on it, i guess it is meant to be utilitarian

Honestly I like Subarus and hope they can make some changes to make the car more appealing. They are not a large company in the auto world but if you have used their cars in a wintry mountain area you will know they can be brilliant. The WRX use to be one of the best entry sports cars you could buy. Alot of BMW owners started out with beat up WRX's as they were economical and relatively easy to work on. I hope the WRX lives on in some form. A small hatchback like they use to have would be great.

Oh, I know. It's undoubtedly a better motor. Look at the change the BRZ saw from going from a 2.0L to a 2.4L. They just should have said it was at least a 10hp improvement, seems silly to only add three hp with all that effort, even if the practical advantages are much larger.

Depends? Is it because it's a tiny turbo that spins up fast that would run out of breath if you turned up the PSI? I've ran into that situation before...
