Here's the truth, from Road and Track.

It's real. But it's conceptual in nature.

Whole bunch of shots from NY so far, and none of them look like the BRZ pics.

For reference, here is the 2016 FR-S:

Dead link.

ETA: I don't have a BRZ, so I'll go back to my corner. I thought we were bad when it comes to speculation and having all the details of the car sussed from one crappy photo!

Hmm nothing there in the link, can you re-post or state any possible details?

Text from R&T:

"Subaru wants to crowd out its third-party aftermarket tuning parts, sold as Subaru Performance Tuning (SPT) at dealers, and get serious about letting customers bolt real STI components onto American Subarus. The Subaru STI Performance Concept is here to establish a beachhead in the minds of consumers before the coming STI invasion. But is it enough?

"So it's a showcase of what STI can do. But what can it do? For one thing, it's not turbocharged. The concept car is packing a Super GT engine, most likely a race-modified, naturally-aspirated EJ20—the predecessor to the new FA20 that powers the production car. The rest of the bits bolted on this concept aren't disclosed, but STI claims that there are chassis, suspension, and (obviously) aero upgrades.

"Read between the lines, and what we're looking at is Subaru of America's hope that they can produce special, tuned-from-the-factory models that feature lots of the STI parts you see on this concept, but without making significant changes to the driveline. If that sounds loosely like the "Tuned by STI" cars sold in Japan, badged as "tS" models, you're exactly right.

"How will Subaru badge STI-fettled models in the U.S.? What additional cosmetic or interior accouterments could we expect? All open questions—questions we're hoping our friends at Subaru can answer at the New York auto show. Stay tuned for more."

Heh heh - I'll bet they jumped the gun and published too early. Fortunately, I still had the page up.

Why must Subaru toy with our emotions...

Kostamojen · 04-01-2015, 02:25 AM

Yup they broke publish date.

Quanye · 04-01-2015, 02:31 AM

I like the interior so much!

imag · 04-01-2015, 02:41 AM

Well hello! I went to download the images in case they took them down. Then I realized that they were numbered, so I tried a few more numbers in the sequence. It turns out there was a whole press pack. Enjoy!

imag · 04-01-2015, 02:45 AM

Actually, I photoshopped all of them. April Fools!

Bravo

Too bad it's just another concept, cool interior though.
