I mean even if they did add a turbo, the price would change dramatically and it wouldn't be a cheap sports car anymore. It'd be at the same price as an STi and players in that category.

I want the blue car that Subaru has been showing off for the past 20million years!! BUT only if it gets a big hike in power.

Nothing exciting, just a different side grille design. Look up the concept version from TAS 2017.

It would be a real STI. So, more people than you think would gladly buy it. These cars in certain trims are already getting 30k+ so they aren't exactly all "cheap."

If subaru made an STI version with a turbo and it was reliable, I would pay the $40k price tag. I don't give a damn!
