Check this out....
Finally Subaru see the light and partners with a Japanese Automaker.
This should really make a diff in reliability for Subaru in that hopefully they will be parts sharing with Toyota.
Instead of having to see SAAABARUU, i guess we will see a subaru influenced
Toyota though.....

Does that mean ricer's have more motivation to stick STi wings on top of their echo hatchbacks now?

You guys realize that Toyota is only buying 8.7% of the shares right?
GM had 20% before and even then they didn't have much say in the cars.

Maybe Honda can buy the remaining of GM's share? Then we can have a Vtec-turbo-AWD-drifter

No way...nissan should grab another 8.7, and then honda can have what's left.
Then we will get the Subatoyonissanda, a shortened sedan body with a silly wing and scoop, a turbo flat four in mid engine layout behind the driver that will support 600hp on stock internals, ATTESAETS, and VTEC. Plus, it will have two LCD displays in the middle of the dash, get 40mpg and have a 30 year warranty.
For those not too familiar with the skyline, ATTESAETS is the best acronym in the world and stands for Advanced Total Traction Engineering System for All Electronic Torque Split. It's basically a RWD setup that feeds torque to the front wheels depending on the driving situation. The amount of torque split is calculated using a hojillion sensors that coat every surface on the car.
