Subaru just needs to add forced induction get this car to about 280hp. Sell it around $33,000 and keep it real to the fans that waited 3 plus years for the twins. Give test drives so people can gain an interest and they can increase their sales.
the car feels fast only when revving the hell out the low gears, but it handles great. It just needs a great engine. FI will solve this cars problems. Oh and pluck that cvt out the WRX. Please?!

Good business is evolving a good & popular enthusiast platform into a great one. This car didnt impress me. But the list to make it impressive is short.

All that hype and...
