I felt i had to do this :D:

For some reason i don't mind the 2.5 WRX though, it's just the STi i'm not too keen on.

Although, i might as well put the STi up too:

And here is the back of the new Lancer so far:

And an "artists illustration" of what could be as it's rumoured that the Lancer Hatchback is hinting towards a 2009 WRC return:

Shame the new Type-R is such a let-down underneath the skin compared to its predecessor.

 

I'm not sure we should be using the term 'hot hatch' for these modern behemoths anyway - they're all big and heavy.

 

My old car was a hot hatch...

Yeah well I gathered that :cool:.

 

 

I was just saying that the Hatch doesn't look nice and why make an Hatch if the saloon has worked so well over the years ?????

 

IMO Scoobie's & Evo's aren't in the same category as the Golf GTI, Astra VXR, Focus ST & TYPE R etc etc.

Well, EVOs obviously aren't, as they're saloons, along with the old Scoobies. But as teh new Scooby is a hatchback, it is in the same group as Golf, Focus, Civic, etc.
