I thought the guy at the end was about to open the trunk so that we could see if it was a regular trunk or a hatch trunk! So close! Guess he knew for the garage door to go down first. hahaha


Just a question, these kinda seem leaked by Toyota/Subaru? It isn't like the auto paparazzi are just sitting around at random corners waiting for the test car to drive by and hope to get a few pics/video clips. So is this being released by Toyota/Subaru or are they actually working with journalists telling them this is the route we are taking and this is the garage we are keeping it at? Just curious cause the sudden release of pics and videos seems like a lot just to be pure luck. I am not complaining in the least. I love it. Keep them coming!

Wow. Just seems like they have great positioning for pics and videos. Must also be stalkers in their spare time.

Still pictures just don't do it justice. Seeing the car in motion, in full 1080p, just reconfirms my love for this car. I've watched the video like 100 times already lol

I don't think the car was going very fast in the video, but it does seem like body motions are pretty well controlled. Hopefully that's a good sign?

Damn, these photos/video are making my day

I really love it, now I wish they make a hatch ver, better f&r fenders (like the GD impreza) and a single exhaust setup. But guess we cann't get all the good things we want at once

From the video it screams "Celica" to me. Not Supra and not AE86 incarnate.

Yeah she is but you can still hear the nice boxer rumble. I wonder if the quietness is due to the background noise and not having a great mic to cancel out some of the background/ambient noise?
