It live~ IT LIVE!!! :bellyroll: :bellyroll: :bellyroll:

It looks more like an embroidery on clothing.

I'm going to make one on my jacket then. :thumbup:

I guess it's alright for not being too fancy.

Just say IF this car did came out as RS, when some one ask me what I drive I gotta say I have Subaru 2.5RS and RS. You know pain in the ass that is :bellyroll:

Meeehh, I'd be more excited if it said "22B" :D

Yeah, especially if the new car happens to come out with a 2.5 liter engine too, haha!

Yea no shit lol
"hey man what do you drive?"
"Oh, a subaru 2.5 RS and a subaru 2.5 RS. Two completely different cars."
"Ummmm..... ok"
:bellyroll:

But the RS Subaru is AWD so this makes no sense to me.

But I thought all Celicas were FWD!! Oh no.... wait a second.

aside from the potential confusion mentioned above, and the similarity between "RS" and "FR-S", i think its a good name. It also opens the door to multiple displacement options, because 2000RS implies a specific displacement. I think that's good because a 2.5 liter version (N/A) would be the bee's knees.

Why do they need to trademark the RS? I thought they would already had it trademarked from the Impreza and Legacy?

Gc8?
