I hope if they make it close to this (the STi).... that they make a wing like that aftermarket.. not usually a fan of the park bench spoilers... but, this looks right.

^^^^Do my eyes deceive me, or is that really a supercharger on the engine in the foreground?

Funny, I built this car 10 years ago and most in this forum called me crazy. I converted my Cobb Tuned Impreza (first ever built by Trey when he was still in Texas) to RWD.
I am glad to see this car come out - leave it RWD and leave it NA - just become a better driver. Turbo is a driving aid just like traction control or stability management |

Five different BRZ first drive reviews out in one day. ALL positive (some extremely).
BRZ review compilations - http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2498 But the most positive one I've seen on any of these cars is the EVO review, which completely gushed about the Toyota 86 - http://www.evo.co.uk/carreviews/evoc...ota_gt_86.html And one of the BRZ reviews called the steering better than anything out there, short of a Lotus. I'm even more psyched for the BRZ after the initial impressions. |

SOA already released that the Turbo version is being ironed out already. I guess nobody's gonna buy that cuz it's too much power and it won't be how the car was designed to be. :rollseyes:

The article you're referring to talks about a new 2.0L turbo engine coming out soon, but it doesn't say what vehicle it's going into.

The turbocharged motor is going into the WRX/STi, not the FT86/BRZ.

The 1.6L turbo just means that they can qualify for WRC with that motor! |
