It will look like this, the FT86, will be rebadged as a Subaru in the American Market.

the rear end of this new coupe:

is the exact same as the 08/09/10 impreza sedan. (couldn't find a pic of mine, but this is 12OYALTY's

i know that subaru will have their version of the ft-86 but i think its going to be a lot different looks wise.
i think its going to be something shaped a little more like the bmw x6...a 3G sti styled front end with a 08/09/10 sedan rear.
i'm going to say that this video is titled wrong:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SYJjE7X ... r_embedded
would they put working 08/09 taillights on over the ft-86's? plus, pictures of the new toyota are already out, why cover it up?
i'm sure the engine/drivetrain will be the same, but the look of the car is going to be totally different from the ft-86.
that's my call. i guess we'll see.

^^^ It looks like the suspension has been VASTLY improved. See how twitchy it gets under full lateral g? No stock car subaru has ever produced would handle that kind of major correction in a turn and not wallow and understeer afterwards. It has some serious potential man...

does it have a turbo?? i want it



"The 2011 Subaru Coupe is the fruit of cooperation between Toyota Motor Company and Subaru, and as such will wear a common chassis and some degree of engine commonality, at the least a 2.0 liter, four cylinder boxer engine dubbed the "C-45 Boxer" and making between 200 and 250 HP will power the rear wheels through a manual six speed transmission."

I assume it has a turbo at 250 HP.


The coupe will probably be badged a Toyota in Japan and a Subaru in the rest of the world. Model names are still unknown, but it has leaked out that the engine will be a 2.0-liter boxer engine with about 220 horsepower. It will send power to the rear wheels through a six-speed gearbox. Together with its low weight, it's likely the new coupe will be a drift-happy toy--but there's still no word on whether Subaru will also offer a four-wheel-drive version that would be a spiritual successor of its wacky SVX coupe.

But I also found this.....and it was updated a month ago....

The engine which was previously speculated to be a 2.0-litre turbo warrior making about 118kW (160hp). Indeed it is the revised 2.0-litre turbo from moreover the Impreza 2.0 GT or the WRX STI. However, energy is rumoured to be around 184kW (250hp) with a probable STI type making 227kW (308hp).

Subaru will advance vastness the 216A from the FT-86 through signature styling elements (as offered in these comedian renderings), longer and wider dimensions and an farther 100kg in mass. However, the proximity in actual wheelbase and overall piece with the recent formulate mean the two could piece even more parts.

The FT-86 Concept takes on the domestic codes 086A, 087A and 088A for the Japanese, US and European markets respectively. The Subaru on the other hand is codenamed the 216A according to BestCar magazine.

The Subaru will market its own version of the coupe. If it will be available in all markets or if Subaru will offer the option of AWD and/or a turbocharged engine is something that remains to be seen. Pricing has been speculated at around ¥3 million (€22,267/ US$32,880) when launched in Japan in 2011.
