Saw it earlier on ROMS.. yuk. I mean, it's okay, but it looks like FHI is still with some crappy designers. Why all the cars with vaginas on the front?

Those are photoshops. Wait until a real metal and rubber concept comes out.

The 06 design has yet to be officially released. I've been desperately waiting, so I can see if I want to go 05, or stick with 06.

I really think the 06 will look the same as the 05, and 07 will mark a redesign, along with a new chassis.

I think Subaru will only change the WRX for the 2007 MY. I remember seeing the '04 concept and thinking how ugly it was and I think it turned out fine.

Another wrx facelift? The original design has already been stretched. Those headlight-taillights look incongruous on a big chunky rear end. I'm not a fan of the vagina either (wait, maybe thats poorly put), but it seems to be the design theme that subaru is going with. I hope they dont have the hood creases running into the scoop like they do in the photos, that looks incongruous as well.

Summary:
At least fresh ugly designs are cohesive.

These are the more substantiated rumors I've been hearing. I think you'll be okay getting either a 2005 or 2006, Phil. ;)
