I got it from their Japanese Twitter that just went up 2 hours ago, but you can find out more at there Japanse site there's links up all over this thread.

Im crossing my fingers that the BRZ that's going to be shown here or one of them will be Plasma Blue. That's the color I want most

I think it's safe to assume the Subaru variant will be more expensive than scion.

So what do we get? More power and a lighter weight I hope! Maybe just a slight change in ECU to get another 10-15 hp...

If they think they can get away with a higher price and no difference in power people like myself will just get the cheaper scion, and they know that.

The smaller dimensions also surprise me. I'm really curious to see both cars side by side.

Wasnt there a rumor or an interview that resulted in a specluation of it being around 19k to 23k all these 25 to 28k is so recent and seem more around wrx`s range i doubt theyll do that to them selves. Keep it under 24k please! Heck if its expensive make it worth it.

Thanks guys for sharing the updates!

Looks good so far! This teaser pic reminds of the Impreza teaser and then seeing the full model and how ugly it was lead to a complete let-down!

If this thing came in Plasma blue, it's a done deal!

That's old news. He doesn't specify trim levels though and anyone who believes that this will be a 19k car is smoking crack.

It could be if the car comes with unpainted bumpers, 16" steelies, no radio/cd player, no fog, no HID, no projector, 2 speakers.
