At least rumors are making their way back to the forum.

Might be time for some of the original FT86 detectives to do some under cover work.

isnt 274 the output for the current WRX? (STI is 300?)

And as mentioned before, the new FA20 DIT motor makes 296/296 (it loses D4S for just Direct injection tech). So far that one's only in the japanese Legacy.

Turbo the BRZ, Higher the power is not difficult, it is keeping everything in perfect balance makes it difficult. Why the other higher power cars rank lower in the review? I am anxious to see a STI a couple years later in this review again.

Coupe ain't gonna come for another 3~4yrs. Well, that's my guess anyways. I'm guessing they gonna use "22B" 20th Anniversary edi (on 2018) and on 2020, they'll make 22nd Anniversary edi 22B STI

Even if it were true, I don't care. It has enough power for me to need to become a better driver.

Here's the deciding factor. After a spirited backroad blast, when you make it home, how big is the smile on your face?
