Coincidence, I think not!
I hate to even bring this up now that the forum subtitle keeps changing, but SOA Blog says the internal chassis code is not 216a, but AS1.

"there's probably a good reason for that - engine placement is critical in a car like the new AS1 (our internal code) "



As for what the name will actually be, 2000RS was good, but i guess it would be tough to put a FB25 in there later on (which I hope they do). 2500RS doesnt exactly roll off the tongue.

Personally, I don't care about the name (and i'll get the Subaru version unless the Scion version is undeniably better). I'll always call it the Toyobaru :happy0180:

Subaru can call it "Look at me i'm a toolbag for buying a car with such a terrible name" and I, hand on heart, would still buy it.
