PS. Maxim don't try to take my place on here as "that guy".
Don't worry, I'll be mostly gone for the next year or so. That'll give you plenty more time to be "that guy."

Mostly I'm interested in what this means for the WRX. With news circulating that the WRX is being split off from the normal Impreza line (for example, Subaru is continuing to sell the CURRENT gen WRX and STi alongside the new gen Impreza), and Subaru's exit from WRC....I think there's a good chance that we might already know the name of the Subaru Coupe's name.....especially since Subaru has been making the WRX more and more road oriented over the last generation.

So who knows, maybe in the future we'll see a WRX based on this new platform. If they still want it to be AWD, I'm sure that a system similar to the new Ferrari FF could be implimented.....it's lightweight, small, and low cost. If you guys don't know how that system functions, you should look into it. It's very interesting.
