What's funny is Subaru literally has everything they need physically to actually make a BRZ sti. For whatever reason though, they seem to not want to.



There's various theories I'm sure as to why, but besides the guys at the top of the chain in Subaru, I doubt anybody else really knows.

They already make it. It's the BRZ tS, which is a car sold by STi. The parts can be bought (and I would know because I have them). The problem is it would be a hard sell outside Japan. You're looking at almost 40k USD for a car that has no additional power. Ppl are bitching and moaning as it is.

However this is what I've been trying to reiterate for a while. The BRZ tS IS the BRZ STi. It's already been released just not outside Japan
