I'm disappointed there is not much distinguishing it from its sister, the Toyota GT-86. Plus, it will be the only Subaru without AWD. It reminds me of the badge-engineering of GM in the Eighties. |

RWD, naturally aspirated, makes me sad.

Is this the one with a crazy ass power to weight ratio?? Binaryterror was telling me about this new Subie coming out that will be a rwd roadster type with a really high power to weight ratio.

Initial release is 200hp and a chassis weight of 2700 lbs. it should make for a fun car thE weight sits back in the chassis with the flat 4 and I thought I read low 50's f/r weight bias will make it a curvy road dream. Give them a year or 2 and you'll see both a convertible(Toyota) and an STI version(subaru) with the STI turbo 4 in it. That will make a fun car. I had an ae86 Corolla for a rally car and even at 140hp on 2300lbs it was a fun balanced car. |

Looks like a fun ride. I'll wait a couple years til the dealers calm down. I'm too cheap to give them the ADP. |

The talked about STi version is claiming current WRX levels of 260's, but nothing is set on that version. This would greatly help it in the class. | ||||

I've been following the car for a long time being a Subaru owner. I love it and will add it to my stable one day. But it will most likely be the 2nd gen when they have all the kinks worked out and hopefully a boosted version.

I like the car. The STI concept version looks sick but either way I would roll in one murdered out in black | |

AWD? Not necessary I say this because Subaru already has an AWD sportscar in the STI. What's wrong with Subaru expanding their brand and making a RWD coupe? Who knows, maybe they'll venture into making a pick up truck one day. | |

Great, another cool car I can't afford. I can't even find a used Impreza here for cheap, no way I'll own that BRZ. |
