Subaru has sold out to the mainstream SUV driving crowd and abandoned those of us who really enjoyed driving fun cars that aren't tall fat and heavy for no reason.
I have a Jeep for wheeling, a van for the wife and when it came time to replace the WRX, I had to look elsewhere. Now I have a CRX HF for commuting and a Porsche for going fast. There is no room for a Subaru anymore. I miss the old Subaru though.
I like the white lip.
Subarus were never very sharp handling cars (though admittedly sharp-er in the '90s), just very capable, and that hasn't changed. They're not moving away from a sporting heritage (if anything they're moving away from a quirky one if you recall before the '90s). The WRC was a public testing ground, and Subaru still campaigns cars in less costly competitions now. They're still Subarus, and still everything they're meant to be.
