We’re not sure if this is an inten­tional leak, but it seems a short com­mer­cial of the new 08 WRX has hit Youtube, which is a tried and true way of gen­er­at­ing inter­est and traf­fic in anyone’s book.

It can be seen below in all it’s com­puter gen­er­ated glory. Note the absence of the “pig-​​nose”, equally loathed and loved by WRX fans glob­ally. Per­son­ally I think the “pig-​​nose” worked bet­ter on some mod­els than oth­ers, though the best look­ing WRX to date is arguably the 1994–2000 con­fig­u­ra­tion which was sim­pler. Also, the car is clearly a hatch, not a sedan.Interestingly, if you take a look at the new EVO; there’s a hint of a pig-​​nose in the front, along with the more aggres­sive rally styling.

It looks like it’s that time again.

It’s the sev­enth year of MotorEx, an exhi­bi­tion of street machines, clas­sics, restored hot rods and up to 70 cus­tom bikes to the tune of $60 mil­lion (that’s in Aussie dol­lars). The event is held over a sin­gle week­end, start­ing on Sat­ur­day, June 30 and end­ing on the Sun­day, 1st of July.

The event includes a heated com­pe­ti­tion, Meguiar’s Super­stars, with cat­e­gories includ­ing the best Per­for­mance cars, best Fords and Hold­ens and best Hot ‘s.
