That's the BRZ rwd (same as the ft-86), whereas the WRX will remain AWD though

That's right, just thought it would be an interesting comparo since this now official BRZ coupe is very similar to the speculated/proposed WRX coupe

Except for AWD and unless the body is very different, (alot smaller ?) will Sube bother to produce the WRX coupe ??

Will also be interesting to see the final configurations, features and and price point differences between the Sube BRZ and Toyota FT-86...

I'd say we won't get the BRZ here, the head of suby aus said he wanted all the cars in the aus fleet to be AWD as they have 'all 4 the driver' as their selling point

Interesting...

Considering the BRZ is a reality and that it'll be available from Q1 or Q2 next year and that it's in the same class as its sister FT-86 and others such as the Nissan 370Z and a similar new model of Hyundai here in Aust. surely Sube would miss out on sales if they take that approach ??
