We wouldn't quite call ourselves fans of the Fast and Furious franchise, but we're getting more and more impressed with this newest iteration of the Subaru Impreza WRX STI. We'll admit that it's hardly the most attractive hatch on the road, but its blend of planted purposefulness and flared fenders have slowly made converts out of some of us.

Could it be made uglier? Most certainly. But the crew at Veilside are supplying a kit for the new STI that will make its debut in the new Fast and Furious sequel. The Rally Blue 'Rex is getting a full work-over at a shop in Southern California before Paul Walker (aka Brian O'Connner) takes the helm and our friends at ExhaustNote.com were able to supply some pics in the midst of modifications. While the new front bumper and precariously placed spoiler might not suit everyone's taste, the full roll cage could mean that better (non-CG, please) stunts are on the way.

Saw this on NASIOC. There goes our insurance rates as soon as the kids get their parents to buy them the car and crash it.

Heard Vin Deisel is back too.

should be interesting to watch unfold.

[HamSocks]

Tokyo Drift got my hopes up that the series was getting better.

Guess not.

[Nate8409]

But dad I saw the car do it in the movie and it looked easy!

:'(

[04silvrrex]

:rofl:

[Kevin]

wonder if its getting underglow lights lol

[Nate8409]

All I know is it is going to have at least a 17 speed transmission.

[f1vlad]

Can't wait for the movie!

[AllWheelDriveIsAllIllDriv]

i'm gona granny shift my way to the theater for this one. yarrrrr

[AllWheelDriveIsAllIllDriv]

how can we capitalize on the moment? mmmmmm

[morbidgorilla]

well hopefully the kids buying them and crashing them/blowing trasmissions will result in a 5hit load of parts in the junkyards

YAY FOR USED PARTS!

[Nate8409]

Good call Morbid. GO FAST AND THE FURIOUS! Salvage WRX for cheap money.

[RCKSTR]

I like that idea:D I'd like some used STI parts:devil:

[AllWheelsDriven]

i like that maybe i will finally be able to aford a swap!

[Bu11dogg2]

:lol: watch your insurance rates triple too :lol:

[Kevin]

my insurance already sucks enough with out this :lol:

[Bu11dogg2]

BTW, the 08's use a Legacy style set up, so parts are useless on your older cars ;)

LMAO. fast and the flurious

[Bu11dogg2]

:lol:

on another note, we should have a meet to go see this travesty :lol:

[HamSocks]

What I don't understand is why they're using a brand new car in what is a prequel to Tokyo Drift. That would be like using a 2008 Mustang for the filming of a Bullitt prequel.

[jubert]

I'd have to say, nothing is going to happen after the movie. Kids watching this will beg their parents until they find out its $40,000. I mean look, Fast and Furious 1, Civic, and eclipse, cheap cars. I mean, Evos were in 2 of em, and you don't see ricers driving them(usually).

[HamSocks]

I'd attribute that to where we live rather than price. Go on down to Florida or Cali ad tell me you don't see riced Evos.

[Kevin]

I think the new mustang is also in it.

[Carter]

I actually liked the first one, but that was it. It would be interesting to see Vin come back...

[Bu11dogg2]

I'm hoping this one is good.
