Back to "Insider Info..." for a moment. I just read the following with regards to the JDM only new limited edition WRX called; The
WRX S4 STi Sport #
"...roughly 90% of U.S. WRX STI buyers go for the six-speed 'box. That leaves the WRX STI out of the company's EyeSight driver assistance tech, which only works with Subaru's CVT, and we still don't know if Subaru will prioritize ultimate safety throughout the lineup or give enthusiasts the transmission they clearly want when the next-gen WRX STI shows up next October or thereabouts."
So how does this relate? Well, if Subaru's Eye Sight tech only works with CVT transmissions and if the click bait sites are correct that the next gen will have a 6 speed manual version then... NO EYE SIGHT Nanny for the gen 2 twins.
