The crying in here sure makes it sound like people were forced. It is an aero kit and a special color. It costs practically nothing to offer this as a limited run. An engine revision after 2 years would cost a lot more.
It isn't about making yours less cool. Mod it to be unique to you if that is your concern. Or, buy a car you enjoy rather than how cool it is. Maybe some of us that have been waiting for a color, or a package, or the time to be right (my daughter is about to go front facing in her car seat) should get a chance to be cool. They are only making 1500. They only sell 30k twins a year in the US. It isn't like you are going to see 3 on your street like I do with our Rav4.
Subaru doesn't revise engines that often. We'll probably see some additional engine on the refresh. Is it not ironic that you are complaining about your car being less cool due to these packages when your car would be far less cool if they rolled out a 280hp FR-S? You'd want the new turbo one and the value of the one you own would tank! That would legitimately cost you money. As long as the engine stays the same, your car will retain value better.
