Looks like it's going to be new as well: http://www.autoblog.com/2010/03/29/t...an-ahead-of-n/

Hmmm, looking at it closely it's too short to be a sedan or hatch. I wonder if this is the new FT86!

No it looks like a hatch. Whatever wing it is looks like it is going to be hideous anyways.


Man oh man I hope they don't put that big ass ugly rally wing on it. Looks like it might be but on a smaller scale

I like the hatch a lot. I really like the hatches out now, but hate how it's so paintfully obvious that they aren't as wide as their STi counterpart. Much like the C6 Z06 completely ruined regular C6s for me.

The hatch has a higher hatch line, this is clearly not the hatch or the sedan. Maybe a 3 door hatch?

That photoshop doesn't really show anything because the proportions aren't accurate (the wheelbase on the sedan and hatch pictures is different, and there aren't any references to scale the overlay properly, etc) but I really hope that there is a 3 door lurking under the sheet. That's what I've been waiting for....

The wheel base of the sedan and the hatch lines perfectly. I aligned the hood, hoodscoop, and headlights as close to the covered car as possible. Keep in mind the sedan photo I use is a WRX and the hatch I used is a STI.
