Subaru and Toyota doing something together? That could be interesting. The way they do direct injection will also be something to see, but I have to say the overall design looks bland and outdated

it looks like a 21st century 86...not bad! I like the idea of the flat four. It should be interesting how the lower center of gravity with affect the car's handling...i can't wait to see the prototype model!

I know, this is the only thing I've see or heard about the car online.

I can't wait for more details.

None of these are actually concept cars just artistic renderings based on the details that are known so far.
