Also remember, the Toyota version is coming out first. There's no reason a Subaru version would be tested first. In fact, there's no proof a Subaru design has even started yet. They're not in a hurry.
I'm guessing for the most part that the front bumper, headlights, hood, fenders, doors, etc. will be swappable from each version. The FR-S concept even seems to indicate that when compared to the FT-86 II concept. Think Levin vs. Trueno, Firebird vs Camaro, same concept.

BTW, just because Subaru hasn't released the same info, pics etc doesn't mean the design doesn't exist.

Seeing as how they are all basically the same car underneath, it doesn't matter what version they are testing now as it will apply to all versions of this car.
