If that bit of info came from Moto then its no lie. He's basically the only person around the interwebs I would consider to actually have feasible contact with Toyota engineers on this project without actually working for Toyota or Subaru.

His bit of information is very good to hear!

"Nevertheless, he says, that he is trying his best to develop a car that we 'enthusiasts' will not be disappointed. And went as far as telling me that he shrugged off, pissed off, and told off, all of the marketing and sales people that pushed to have more things added to the car, or tried to include things unnecessary to the performance as his team saw fit for this car."

I liked that part the best, especially the bolded. F off bean counters, we're trying to make an AUTO-MO-BILE here, not a kitchen appliance!
