just remember-- it's currently built at the gunma plant by subaru. who according to https://www.subaru.co.jp/en/outline/office.html make the "LEVORG, IMPREZA, SUBARU XV, WRX, and SUBARU BRZ" at that plant.

so for them to be on the TNGA platform, they'd have to completely re-tool a toyota plant. why would they sink a large amount of millions into a selling-but-low-production vehicle?

It is the SAME fucking picture no wonder it "lines up with what Motor 1 said".
Just more clickbait circular reporting.

I won't buy unless it has 7 wheels.

ARE YOU LISTENING TOYOTA

It's a good thing that the Covid 19 issue will be over with by Easter, so that I can go out and buy that new car of my choice soon.

Wait a minute....Maybe I'll realistically be able to go out of the house by the time Second Gen goes on sale in late 2021...

That's a reality check...

Loud and clear! They loved the idea so much that, rumor has it, they threw in an extra one

more wheels = more grip = better handling

more fake news... I hope.

this looks like a butt ugly photoshop job of the current car. especially the interior shot, wtf is going on the with push button auto selection in the centre stack???

"T" top roof? no thanks - adds weight and reduces head room.

it's a "no" from me, will stick with Gen 1.

Super old GRMN concept from several years ago. I'm not sure why all the old rumors are being recycled.
