If this pans out, I'm looking to get the $28k version. Then again, if toyota doesnt offer a turbo, I've never purchased a subaru, but I may look in that direction before I make my purchase. All in all I'd rather have a N/A 2.5 to avoid the turbo reliability issues(one rumor has the 2.5 at around 240hp). I've had 2 turbo performance vehicles and don't like how finicky they can be some times in comparison.
240hp in NA 2.5L? You know how much ridiculous amount of performance parts to make it that much hp? I have read one 2.5L H4 engine made that much power... well technically 300hp.
Zzyzx Motorsports 2.5 RS break 300 NA HP
other than that, I think H6 engine w 250~280hp is more believable.
