Agree. Subaru finally brought their engine up to current design practices and improved fuel economy:

Then, Toyota added D4-S state of the art fuel injection; and then Yamaha applied their expertise to the head according to several reports (ala 2ZZ-GE). And then, the Scion America VP said that the new FR-S will get "amazing" fuel economy.

The statements about Toyota making a corporate decision to spend some money on the suspension to get the handling right...

Definitely a lot of Toyota input.
