I rather Subaru wait and release something that fits with their company model and current performance line-up.
Then why Toyota and Subaru made Toyota bB (Scion xB) & Subaru Dex. Daihatsu Tanto Exe (Daihatsu is owned by Toyota) & Subaru Lucra. Daihatsu Mira & Subaru Pleo. Opel Zafira & Subaru Traviq. Suzuki Cultus & Subaru Justy. They're all same thing, only difference is emblem and the name. We're talking bout they've been doing these kind of things from early 80's, why they need to stop it now?

It's all bout brand names. Some ppl prefer Toyota brand name over Subaru. Same goes w Subaru over Daihatsu and on and on. If they can make $ from just changing the brand name and customers are dumb enough to buy it then they're smart for doing that.
