I'll stick my neck out and be the 1st to say that I don't think it's too bad. It'd probably work better in a more subdued colour like the typical BMW/Audi gunmetal grey but in terms of styling, it all sort of fits together well enough.

Also, as the base is an Impreza it's dynamically a better car than the BMW/Audi are.

I wouldn't hate because it's different. Fair play I think. I wouldn't own it though.

lol to be fair, you can see hard works gone into it, but not my cup of tea.

police would be like 'yeah were following a bmw 5series'.... they stop walk around the car and have to radio in, 'hang on sarge, the front end is an audi... think weve got a problem here' .. lol

at least its got a decent engine to make up for its pony looks!

The middle of the car is way too small for the big front and huge rear end!

What a waste of effort lol.

It looks like it's been done far better than I would have expected. But, and it's a big but, Why?

Perfect bank job car IMHO, 4 wheel drive turbo power for the getaway, then listen to the witnesses argue about if it was a BMW or Audi, or what the hell it actually was
