I kind of like it. Saw a report that said it might feature a 2.0L Boxer engine, the same that pushes 320 HP in the WRX STI.....
The sti's boxer is a 2.5l. They are using an entirely new subaru motor that hasn't been released yet. 2.0l, n/a, probably about 220hp. The car is going to be very lightweight, but I'm not impressed with their plans right now, it's more of an s2000 competitor. I find the Subaru BRZ (same platform) more intriguing. It is less dramatic in styling and supposedly there are plans for an STi model in the second model year.
