But it doesnt matter because I could care less either way, if there was an awd version I would prob go with that but there isnt going to be (or at least it doesnt make sense why there would be) so rwd would be fine.
The author/journalist, not you. If a WRX is $25k I don't see why the FT-86 would come out at $25k unless they are discussing the midrange models. Very confusing detail even if it is more important to more people than the base price.

Subaru still hasn't shown their car. I'm guessing they would keep it RWD but it's still possible that they change some things. The 2.5liter sounds like speculation. They're designing a new engine for this car yet why would Subaru use the old block? Can they fit the Toyota heads onto a 2.5liter?
