Seems to me that they're trying to imitate the new subies. Still undecided.Love the tail lights though.

I actually like it. Not much of a wagon though... Definitely a leap forward from the previous generations. I like the Lancer front end...

i think it looks better than the sedan, only because of how the rear end is designed.this looks better than this

LIke the mazda 6 with its sedan, lift gate and then wagon edition. they did a much better job though...

The current Lancer's have sort of a square-ish straight look to it with edges and whatnot. The tail lights had a similar look to the headlights. With this hatchback they have kept the front end the same, but the tail end seems to be more rounded and doesn't flow well. Because they don't keep the theme consistent in the whole car, I don't think it looks right. A lot of companies seem to come up with a lot of afterthoughts now. For example the G37 convertible:And the same thing for the 2010 Audi S5:
