This is the Subaru BRZ Concept STi – a rather obviously production-ready glimpse of the new rear-wheel drive coupe, co-developed between Subaru parent Fuji Heavy Industries and Toyota. Subaru BRZ Concept STi: the lowdown This coupe will be shown at the 2011 Los Angeles auto show on 16 November 2011 and just one photo has been issued so far. There's precious little in the way of technical information, either. They're just trotting out the usual line about it being powered by Subaru's horizontally opposed boxer engine, which we've known since day one. Extra information we've already gleaned from our recent drive in the Toyota FT-86 include the fact that the boxer engine is likely to be a 2.0-litre four-cylinder boxer, delivering around 200bhp/170lb ft in regular guise. The direct-injection Toyota emits around 160g/km for trim tax bills. But the STi monicker of this concept car is a clear indication that go-faster versions are planned. Witness the enormous rear wing. Any other details on the Subaru BRZ? That boxer engine will allow a very low centre of gravity, promises Subaru, so we are told to expect edgy handling. CAR's resident oversteer-fan, deputy editor Ben Barry, reported that the rear-wheel drive FT-86 test hack he drove was very sideways – but in quite a different way from rally-proven four-wheel drive Subarus of yore. The Subaru BRZ is likely to be a niche car in the UK. Torrid exchange rates will make this one pricey sports coupe, and the UK importer expects sales of only around 500 a year. We reckon on this first evidence, they might be able to nudge that volume up a notch or too. If they can get the price right." http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/News/Se...icial-picture/ |
Looks amazing to me! Reminds me of the old Z4 coupe. Unfortunately it won't, actually can't, look like that, as the Subaru and Toyota share the same metal. I can hope for red tail lights for the production Subaru though.

Yeah well this is still just a concept because its been shown in LA in a couple of weeks, but its an official BRZ image!!
|
If it has more power or torque than the Toyoter, I'll take it.
|
That is awesome! I Love It!
|
They just need to take my damn money already
|
Looks nice...for a concept, bring out the real deal!
|
Not really liking the rear diffuser as much on this concept but the quadpipes are a nice touch. Can't wait to see what the front looks like...and the final model in Tokyo.
|
My money is yours, TAKE IT NOW!!!
|
Why do only the British magazines/websites get these stories?
|
I like the BRZ tailights better
