I wouldn't bet on it for the first model year. The pre-production steering wheel controls were the Subaru design, but the manual and recent pictures are all showing the Toyota cruise. It's also not on the list of features.

The GC8 was the four-door WRX. The 2.5RS coupe is a GM6 (it's on my VIN). Sorry, just had to spread that little known bit of info.
