Another BRZ Test Mule? Turbo?
 
i found this today ->

the hood looks interesting - intercooler inside? :party0030:

maybe its the new wrx/sti?

I saw this video earlier today as well. But the thing is i am 99% sure that that exact same car was spied on a long time ago. I am looking for another video of it. I am sure it was being labeled as the BRZ as well. Might be an old vid. i will keep looking! And it can totally be something else other than a BRZ too right?

but not the same hood ;)

nrclptcnsmniak 11-22-2011 08:40 AM

yeah true but the hood scoop on your video is completely closed off anyways. So if there were a functioning turbo it would have to be fmic but none of the vids have a fmic... hmm interesting though. Maybe its just a replacement hood ^_^ lol

Harinjo 11-22-2011 08:44 AM

also front bumper is not the same -
and there is so much room between bumber and hood - possibly the air for the intercooler goes in there:popcorn:

nrclptcnsmniak 11-22-2011 08:48 AM

haha ok ok perhaps. itd be neat though if they were testing a turbo version. If this video was uploaded near its recorded date then it would make sense that some testing is still occuring. Would they still be testing the exact same model thats going to be in production in spring of 2012? how long does testing go to? I have a feeling it might be a wrx platform. Only because it shares nothing of a coupe shape thats shared with the fr-s.

Backend looks nothing like a brz roof is way too long window is too far back etc

Probably, it's the next WRX.

I could set my clock by the posts about this mule. It's sad when I know which pictures are going to posted before I even open the thread.

The car is ready almost ready for production....

And you're excited on a Test mule?!

They've tested the car on a Track and we've got plenty of posts on the lead developer saying how amazed he is with how the car turned out..

Its just a donkey+a Horse.

More mule sitings in the US.
 
Not sure if any seen these, but more mule sitings right before and even after TMS release. What do you think is the reason for this?

And December 3, interesting enough about this vid is the cam car is a brand new MINI Coupe S 2 seater, I got to test one last month.
