i agree that the subaru version will be n/a. maybe a turbo version comes out in a year or two i hope (for both toyo and subie).
Maybe 30-50kg is a bit too much for the weight increase. I was thinking brakes, interior, sunroof (probably not standard) would add some weight. So maybe cut that estimate in 1/2 then.

Thanks for the links to nasioc. Seems like some decent info over there. Not sure if it is legit, but it sounds like it could be. Yeah I don't see a turbo version until maybe 2-3 years into the model possibly (depending how successful it is). I would actually just prefer if they kept it a NA platform and leave the turbo for the WRX and STI.

Ichi (and everyone else), I look forward to hearing what your predictions might be.
