It looks more like an embroidery on clothing.

But the RS Subaru is AWD so this makes no sense to me.

aside from the potential confusion mentioned above, and the similarity between "RS" and "FR-S", i think its a good name. It also opens the door to multiple displacement options, because 2000RS implies a specific displacement. I think that's good because a 2.5 liter version (N/A) would be the bee's knees.

Why do they need to trademark the RS? I thought they would already had it trademarked from the Impreza and Legacy?
