didn't know the 08's were gona have rear drums. I'm figuring they
should sell the 07 for the price of an 08' being a yr old.
Base model only.
There may be some other differences favouring the '07.
Some say the double wish-bone rear suspension in 08's
results in slightly different handling characteristics, but
surely frees a lot of trunk spac. Things like these, in my mind,
obscure where the real value is. Dealers will probably not
be all that eager to let go of the 07 cheap. Unless you wait
after New Years, which kind'a makes them soften up on
old inventory.
Overall I think the 08 Impreza will be a better car,
I personally dont mind the different rear suspension,
drum brakes (on base models) and prefer frame type
windows, and of course bigger size. Styling I think is
acceptable- haven't seen the car in person yet (going to
dealer to take a peak today). Only wish they made
a two door coupe/hatch.
