Every statement above isnt rumors or hearsay. google 2014 WRX and you will see plenty of articles about subaru debuting their performance model at the 2013 NY auto show.
Ok fine, but you that's not at all what you said in your other post. Let me break it down for you:
Yea could be BRZ STI. But the US will never see that model.
How do you know this based on Subaru's announcement of a "performance concept"? While it certainly may be a BRZ STI, you have no proof on where such a model may or may not be sold, if it even exists at all.
I thought i read something about BRZ STI wouldnt happen because they wouldnt want it to interfere with the STI sales.
Again, where is this coming from? I guess the logic sort of makes sense, but it's still just rumors.
We are spun up because some people are more passionate about their cars, you are obviously not. Stop being a buzz kill and let people enjoy the lastest news that has come out. If you think we are beating a dead horse then dont read this forum thread. jeez lol
Key distinction: I'm passionate about the WRX in my garage. It's a real car that can really be driven. This is not a real car yet. Sure, it's fun to dream about the future, but at the end of the day, my car will move me places and put a huge stupid grin on my face. This can't yet. Call me a buzzkill all you want, I'm far more interested (and excited about) in released facts announced by Subaru themselves, not what a bunch of car blogs think Subaru will do. What you posted isn't news. They are rumors that keep adding to all the confusion. I'll bet Subaru engineers are laughing their asses off at some of the "confirmed facts" floating around the internet. The fact is, nobody except Subaru knows yet what the car will be like. When they officially announce it in a press release, you can be sure I'll be very interested in it, but I can wait until then.
I'm tired of all the "artist renditions" of what the car will look like, rumors about what engine will go where, etc. I'm ready for Subaru to officially announce the car and put all the rumors and speculation to bed once and for all (or at least until the next WRX comes out, when we'll repeat this whole cycle again...)
I didnt suggest we would see an AWD BRZ. I was saying that if the BRZ STI and WRX STI came turbo'ed that people would have a chance to choose a RWD or AWD drivetrain with the same motor, It would be cool. I understand the science and enginerring behind the AWD drivetrain, again it was just conversation
Ok, my bad. I was confused by your wording and thought you meant an AWD BRZ. I see what you're getting at, and that would certainly be interesting.
Look, don't take any of my comments personally, I'm just tired of hearing rumors passed off as facts, and I'm frustrated with the huge ball of confusion surrounding this car. At this point, I just want to see what Subaru has in store, and I really am looking forward to it.
