The "I'd buy a FRS/BRZ if it only had 2XX amount of HP crowd" still won't be satisfied and sales won't meet the bean counters approval. This will give Toyota and Subaru a convenient excuse to dissolve the partnership and still save face.


Toyota will push forward with their BMW relationship for the next generation GT86/FRS and Subaru will be able to greenlight the rumored SVX project as a replacement for the, "one of these things is not like the others", BRZ.
Can I have your crystal ball when you are done with it?
