This is interesting news to me, because I was also under the impression that the newly redesigned WRX is supposed to also take some design principles from the BRZ. Now it will be getting the more powerful turbo BRZ motor as well.

I am just curious how they are going to work this at the dealership. Subaru is finally changing it's line up to have the WRX and STI break away from the Impreza name, to differentiate the two markets.

Now it seems that they are going to kinda replace the base Impreza with the BRZ. You can have a well handling FR, or get it's boosted AWD older brother? .... and for how much of a price difference?

Now more then ever I feel that Subaru really needs to hit the right price point. Otherwise I, who was planning to buy the day these hit the lot, will wait patiently to see how things all pan out.
