Looks very much like a Lexus or Hyundai Genesis Coupe now. Not sure how I feel about it compared to the current model yet. I'll consider buying one if they actually upgrade it with an STI turbo model or something later.

a number of comments on the web says it looks like a baby Lexus RCF. not a bad thing imo.

Drop the complaining. Some topics/news deserve a new thread. Such as this.

Well how about we link the actual Subaru information instead of some Instagram quasi news.

You think they would change it to a different bolt pattern?

TylerLieberman · 10-05-2020, 10:10 PM

Doubtful. Still looks 5x100 to me.

Sorry but that looks like it is going to much for a Porsche Panamera baby

soundman98 · 10-05-2020, 11:00 PM

the cab proportions look identical to the previous years. the major changes look to be on both ends.

there's a rumor somewhere that subaru is starting to use 1.5L motors in other cars to meet country requirements. i can't stop thinking of the irony of them putting less of a motor in the new car when everyone is expecting a 2.4L...
