Or at least, the visually-impaired. :lol:
IMHO, the styling is atrocious.

I LIKE the design. I think they could have found a better color combination. I would also prefer a 4 door version. The website shows the car from all angles. Make mine with a clean turbo-diesel engine and 5-speed manual transmission. :D

Did you see the Scion FR-S sedan concept? It has 4 doors, and to my eye, the Scion looks far better than the Subaru.

It's a BRZ Outback. Bad news: CVT only.

And that sedan is a render done by someone to the original concept. Subaru doesn't want a 4-door BRZ because it may compete with the WRX, but rumor has it that a 5-door may come out...

Probably the best looking 4 door I have ever seen. But as Kit222 said, this is just someone's rendering. I'm guessing the "real" FR-S sedan won't look anything like this. For me personally, I'm only interested if its a hatch or wagon.

I wouldn't say it looks atrocious, but a bit blocky and bulky, like most current offerings from Subaru. Just needs some softening IMO. The general design and proportions look good to me.
