3 years ago toyota bought 8 percent of shares of subarus stock. thats how they got the sweet deal with subaru designing the engine.
the day this goes into production is the same day i sell the yaris. so be prepared for a part out sometime in 2011 |

I read somewhere that the EJ20 in the FT-86 will have a new re-worked head from Toyota

YA, they are looking for an EJ20 or EJ25...either way, they want near 200hp

AWD and a turbo would be a nice homage to all the great All Trac Turbo Toyotas of yore. Some great sports cars back in the day. Hell, some great 4WD Tercell's too.

the subaru version is very close to production styling....not liking the back for some reason, but then again, Subaru was always more leaned towards functionality than aesthetics...

Personally rather have the Subie Version, seeing it probably will have more aftermarket appeal. Although with a $5,000 more pricetag
Plus it looks really unrefined, it its current lack of curves, I dont see many wanting to buy it first, then the Sexy Toyota version come out later...

yea that looks hideous, tho i think the toyota concept looks nice...
here was my predictions btw ;D http://yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20514 to be honest, a subaru engine just seems odd; it won't have the toyota reliability like all their other cars have; why can't it just have a v-6 lexus engine stuffed in there? now that'd be like a supra! |
