Ooo interesting.

Curious to know what the production model would look like. Lines look nice.. would be nice if it wasn't SUV height... and that trunk opens kinda funky..

Time to wait and see.

I wasn't expecting this. Nonetheless, not good looking but there are some parts I like especially the taillights.

More shooting brake and less crossover and they would have my attention.

1. Lower
2. Remove Oddly Colored Body Panels
3. Wheels and Low Profile Tires
4. Headlights from BRZ/FT-86
5. Show it to me in a real color (WRB, SWP, Red etc...), The grey is dulling the lines.

Intriguing...
1. Doesn't need to be much lower, if at all.
2. Keep it all the same paint scheme
3. Wheels and Lower Profile Tires. This probably won't be a race car so I would be good with 50 series or so.
4. Like the front end. Differentiates it from the BRZ
5. Seeing it in colors would be nice, but I would probably end up with Silver/dark windows anyway. Although the blue they took away this year from the BRZ would be good.
6. 230 to 250HP would be nice.
7. If it were to happen, which I doubt, why not go all the way and make it AWD.

Maybe that is Subaru's solution to skipping/avoiding the Torque Dip altogether

I guess I'm probably just dreaming because this is what I want it to look like:

I loved this concept when it came out. I bet the Levorg is the near production version of that concept... which again, lost a lot of its good looks in translation from concept to production.


And I think this BRZ concept looks awesome, but CVT kills it for me. Stick or get out!

I love it! If it was shown to perform in SCCA C-Street I would trade my FR-S in for one.

(It probably won't though with the higher height and most likely softer springs.)

My opinion will be greatly swayed depending on what happens between now and the assumed production, but for me, I would want it lower and more shooting brake like.
For my GF, this is probably perfect.
Either way it would need to come in a stick.
