Impreza came out in 16 as a 17 model. My wife has one of the very first ones. I am very interested in seeing how the WRX/STi will be transformed by this new platform. Her Impreza is... well impressive. The model cycle for Subaru is sporadic at best so trying to watch trends is complicated. The WRX/STi dropped the pretext of being Imprezas years ago and Subaru has officially said they will be stand alone products in the future (even though they may share many parts bin parts). This of course means that whatever stage the Impreza is in means nothing for the WRX/STi. AlthoughI do agree we will see something next year it may not be a 2021 model year car.
