Having said that, I don't know what is the reason to leak such news now. I know for sure that the relations between Toyota and Subaru were not as good in the past and now looks the same. Maybe they are trying to push the issue on a higher level and find a solution before it is too late. For sure if nothing is on the papers, the date target of '19-'20 for a new model is now out of the question.
OH I don't disbelieve him for one second! It is the people feeding the info to him that I have doubts about. Like I said the people that really know can not and will not talk.
These cars are important to us so we tend to think it is just as vital to them but in reality it is a tiny speck off to the left of one side of a far corner of their business and a simple majority of nays at a board meeting will kill it in a second. We can try to guess what they are doing based on heresy and rumours but we actually haven't got a clue what the plans are.
