Subaru BRZ sti

Does anyone have information on this car or if it's even going to happen? Heard it was going to have around 290-300 Hp with turbo. Definitely would get this over the STi

It's actually going to have a turbojet engine with racing slicks from the factory I heard.

They're supposed to make it AWD for the 2017 model year.

I heard it'll have a rotary engine and be powered by red bull.

It's happening. Keep holding out. But don't get the first iteration of the BRZ Sti, because the second gen will have 350hp.

serious answer: nothing has been announced, and at this point, it looks highly unlikely. there is no BRZ STi and probably never will be.

Here we go again!

To answer your question very simply: No there has not been an announcement and there probably won't be.

I imagine you would start contacting redbull itself for wholesale pricing

Yeah, similar engine to the one in the WRX but different turbo placement or something. It also will have a new exhaust (rumoured is quad tip) and a new factory tune. Probably different bumpers and skirts as well ofc. I'd imagine it looking like the BRZ tS but STI's

UGh... I'd rather hear about the incremental changes that the 2016 BRZ limited will have.
