Cool. Is that Subbie used as a battling ram? Looks like some kind of mutation occured.

I don't get what the problem is? In rally racing, cars always have like 100 headlights...

Problem is, that may be the ugliest damn headlight pod I've ever seen (and headlight pods ain't pretty). Even those big arched ones that mount in the middle of the grill look better than that setup.

Agreed. There are *gasp* racing events that those lights are useful and even needed. Now if that's a daily driven car, it's a different story. If you've never seen a WRC event I'd advise you do some research before you just blindly bash cars in sheer ignorance.

Now if that car had 8 long legs it would pass as a killer mother black widow.

Guess Subaru is experimenting with layering on the ugly. It's like a tootsie roll pop of ugly.

I've seen plenty of rally cars in general, not just WRC cars, and I maintain that that is the ugliest variant of a headlight pod that I've ever seen. Headlight pods are capable of being quite hideous, but this one is the mack-daddy of ugly.

I really got to wonder how a person suddenly goes...."**** man, I'm going to stick some big ugly headlights on top of my other lights. That will look so cool!".

WTF?

its not done to look cool. its done so that they can see where they are going at night. its used in racing cars like that. ugly doesn't matter. Ive seen races where they use them. and remember in racing if it wasn't useful it wouldn't be there. it would be gone to save weight.


now if that is someones daily driver and they never race it at night than its completely overboard
:D

It's functional in that you may not see the deer with the lights, but that's because they're all hiding behind trees with their front hooves over their eyes.

To be perfectly honest, I wouldn't mind a setup like that. Not on the 8, but as an equalizer 2nd car. Some of the four-wheelin rednecks around here have those 200,000 candle-power halogen headlights with the 150,000 candle-power fog lights.

Give me a billion candle-power rig like that, let bubba pass me on the highway, then WHAM-O! arc-weld his ears to the back of his head. :D :D :D
