Announcement coming on 5 April

Announcement coming on 5 April, by Subaru and Toyota Gazoo Racing (TGR). It's seems likely that it's for the Twins as it is by TGR and not Toyota.

we know there are 3 projects that they're collaborating on...

The twins
Some hot hatch
and EV products.

So it could be ANY Of those 3......

Despite the lack of any real concrete information about the hot hatches.....and the lack of anything about the EV products....and the fact that gazoo racing is involved in this announcement/reveal....
But oh that march 2022 rumor was 1 year and 1 month off....yeah thats it.

They can’t do much otherwise the selling price will be too high and SUBARU will have the advantage. Maybe a tune for an extra 10 hp?

I wouldn't be disappointed if it was about the hatch.

Although we can speculate about why there are two speakers listed under Subaru whose titles have technology in them.

Even if not about the 86 it will still at least be real information.

Different headlights than that of the BRZ? I'll take the bet that they won't be different.

The BRZ and FRS were different lights. Will be the same shape to fit the fenders and hood though.

This reminds me so much of new phone rumors/"leaks".

"Apple decided they need to add back TouchID so the announcement and iPhones will be delayed a few months!"

Yeah, no. The newest models are already decided on at least a year in advance so that the supply lines and manufacturing can ramp up production/figure out any issues in the process. Apple isn't going to add a random new sensor with like 2 months' notice.

Like come on bros, get some common sense! lol.
