Fugly. Looks like some one took one part old RX300 and one part IS300 and put it in the microwave

When Mr. Toyota himself calls a toyota Fugly, you know something is wrong with the car.

Well yeah, it's an internet forum with a self proclaimed expert so something must be wrong with the car.

He's not the end all be all of things you know. Some people have other opinions too. Oh BTW, wipe your nose.

Saw the Sport Cross when I bought my '01 sedan, but I've yet to see a sport cross on the road.

"self proclaimed" ??:confused:

Anyway, the thing sells poorly b/c it f*&kin' ugly as sin. I've seen maybe 3 of them since it's been out.

I've only seen one on the road.
Does not look good.

The sedan is really sweet though.

The sedan it tight as hell, but the SportCross just mangles a clean design.

It would be faster, but that would be about it.

Actually, the WRX Wagon is a very nice car. Not as luxurious but it's not as though it's a tin can on wheels like most American sh!t boxes.

Yeah, that was my point. On the interior, its all the typical plastic and cheese of typical domestic econoboxes. The Lexus interior is x100000000000 compared to it.

Not saying the WRX is a bad vehicle at all. Just not as nice and the IS when it comes to aminities. :)

Would have been nice back in 1995.

Someone from Toyota management needs a huge bitch slapping for producing these outdated, old, cars.

I disagree. The WRX interior is better than your average domestic ecrapobox.

My boss had an IS300 and I wasn't overly impressed by the interior of that car. I'm not saying the WRX interior is better than the Lexus just that it is better than domestic junk. I certainly wouldn't say it is cheesy.

I love it except for the tail lights, I don't dig the lights on the hatch itself :( Looks cluttered and out of place.
