I'm not shocked that the styling is more miss than hit here, it's a Japanese hatch aimed at the more rice end of the market (our first customer was Asian too). The seats are also from the Evo VIII, the IX gets some s****y new leather and alacantra jobbies.
Still, at the end of the day, I couldn't live with one in my garage.
