    Just wondering if there are any 08 WRX owners here? What are your mods so far? Pics would be nice too. I will try to post mine after work. STI's are welcome too;)

    Give it a time, you will like it. They are not changing body style for another 3 years so get used to it. There are some uglines with them but it can be easily changed. Performance wise they are great. I know everybody disliked bugeyes when they came out but look at it now, they are sweet. I did not like 08 WRX on the picture but after driving one I felt in love. They are not bad.:)

    Another 3 years huh? They have changed the body style every 2 years since 2002. And I dont think its the look's as much as the price hike that has kept them off the streets.

    How much was 07 WRX when it came out? I got my 08 for 25K after tax and licence fees. I know STI are way to high in price but I don't know about WRX. Ok two years before they change it to something everybody will reject again.

    I think a fully loaded 07 would be around 25k, when I looked at a fully loaded 08 it was over 30k. Thats more than I paid for my 05 STi. Just saying, the price is whats keeping people away for the most part.

    incorrect, a TR you couldn't even get for that. you could get into the 30s with a loaded rexxy

    Base price for an 07 TR was 23k, what kind of options put it over 30k? I see the 08's are 24800.00 for a bae price as well. Either way, 08's = fugly hence the reason nobody is buying them :)

    Back in '06, I got my TR brand new for right around $23,700 out the door (including TTL).

    I'm not a fan of the '08 WRX look, as it's missing a critical part of the Subaru heritage; the fender flares. The '08 STI, on the other hand, is pretty damn sexy.
