Has anyone else seen this? http://subaru2017.com/2017-subaru-wr...nched-by-2016/

I'm a newbie to the land of Subaru, but is Subaru taking the Toyota design, and putting their Horsepower tricks to the engine? I know there are ways to gain extra power, but here they are saying it will deliver 323 HP? How?
Clickbait fiction. Do not fall for that crap. Not one word of that is real.




LOL I actually gave them a click and read it! Shows the BRZ STi concept but talks about the actual STi (sort of since they somehow feel the WRX and STis are hatchbacks).


The Engrish makes ichi sound like an English language professor and they seem to be very confused as to what car they are actually talking about.

False advertising again. Probably someone at a Subaru dealership.

Well, that depends ....... if you come in under budget the first year, they will figure you are good cost observant manager ........ then NEXT year, you can budget really high (even higher than the pass one cuts) and you will have the money in the budget to buy what you wanted to last year ......

Damn, could they spend money! ........ however, I did get the opportunity to splice a gene under an electron microscope.......I was going to make a monster mouse......but they wouldn't let me finish ......
