    See, this is why doctors recommended that they let Travis rest after his multiple concussions, instead of going out and designing custom Subarus.

    Holy hell this car is unbelievably awful.


    This is something a 14-year old would make in Forza Motorsport II's livery editor. God, this thing is awful.


    It's like, TASTE? HELLO? WHERE ARE YOUUUUU?!


    For a minute I was terrified it was an actual special model and stood a chance of seeing production.


    Thank god it isn't.


    ugh.


    Whoever came up with this paint scheme should be shot.

    What has happened here? Obviously Subaru USA cant tune a car for crap!


    *sigh*


    You look at the rally driver specials done by Subaru UK for Richard Burns and you see how to do it properly.

    "The full list of specs reads like a 16-year-old's wet dream. In addition the P**sy Magnet Yellow paint..."


    If I recall correctly my 16-year-old wet dreams were not magnet, yellow or have anything to do with paint...

    What's funny is how "STI" is right on the corner of the grille like a little red cold sore. I've never drawn the connection before and now I am entertained.

    I didn't see any mention of brakes, even though it appears to have a StopTech kit of some kind. But hell yeah, four paragraphs on the interior!

    @elwood: Definitely doesn't look like the brembo logo, but I was wrong about Stoptech, too. Could just say "subaru" like some of them do, or it could just be some other mfr.

    @Ash78: Reading is fundamental:


    Red STI Brembo brake calipers with white "STI" decals are visible behind the spokes.


    So they ARE brembos, but have special STi decals.

    I enjoy the fact that Jalopnik puts the press releases up for us to read. Usually within the first 5 lines you know exactly who they are marketing the car to.


    In this case it is one of the following:


    *Ricers from midwest states

    *14 year olds (sometime the same as above)

    *40-something men in pre-midlife crisis mode who want something "cooel" to cruise the community college campus in

    *Blind fans of Travis Pastrana
