Far too early to tell that. They have driven pre-production models under supervision from touota/subaru. We know they like what they have seen so far but the real reviews will come once they get their hands on a production model to do their own testing on their own courses. Also, several of the reviews have said it could use more power.

The rx-8 also had glowing reviews when it was released and we know how that turned out. No torque = no fun for a lot of cars.
