As for those speculating on Japanese names for the Subaru variant, doubtful. Look at Subaru's naming history here. XT, Loyale, Justy, Legacy, Impreza, SVX. I would like them to revive the 'Alcyone' (JDM name for the SVX) name for this car here. It's got to do with the name of one of the stars in the constellation that's in their logo.

Yeah but when did SVX had the H4 Engine? SVX was amazing cuz it was coupe w H6. I bet, IF Subaru name their FT86c into SVX, a lot of SVX owner & fan will be upset (that including me)... but if Subaru put H6 engine instead of H4, that's totally different story (new H6 head design from Toyota style H4 head with 1L & 2 cylinders more... I can only dream how much Tq & Hp gonna have).

Also, I rather called to be Justy instead of SVX, if they don't wanna name it Impreza
