Lots of rumours out there but there seems some truth amongst the dross

Most reckon the "new" bits will be unvieled in January USA, March USA and geneva motor shows.

First quarter of 2011

The brand new MK2 engine (non Turbo)
The new Coupe unveiled, maybe badged as Subaru or Scion but most reckon Toyota with 2WD
The new WRX Diesel

second Quarter 2011

The new WRX with Hybrid engine
The brand new Turbo engine with FMIC and front mounted Turbo

Third/ Forth quarter 2011

Scion to have a 4WD option

Having doubts Not going to buy the new saloon till the new MK2 engine comes out then??

Rob

 

The MK2 engine redesign to allow electric drive for hybrid and using a FMIC to loose heat soak issues. Apparently pistons will not be sponsored by Cadburys

Tony

 

what do you mean by scion?
Sorry bit tick me

 

Scion is the US name for Toyota

Tony is referring to the Coupe Toyota and Subaru have jointly developed (currently a RWD car)

 

Scion is a brand in the USA

Import 2.0ltr is just toooo expensive So yes if a 2.5ltr then I'll just wait till the MK2 Turbo engine setup is released

Tony

 

 

Well hopefully they have sorted them for the MK2 engines

 

What about the flat 6 turbo diesel

 

Sorry I've not heard when, I'll ask

Tony

 

Well they have annouched the new Coupe already

 

2011 WRX-STi is a saloon!

 

They offer them in hatch as well...

 

Have you just awoken from a coma or something?

 

Maybe, how would I know? I did a search and found nothing. Can you point me at one of the discussion threads as I'm interested to see all the opinions.

 

This is the coupe,

Here is some other pics from another thread

i like the new concept car but what will it look like by the time we get it

Rob

 

Your right the Carbon fibre will turn Into cheapooo plastic

I would also wait till late Summer for the Mk2 engine release

Tony

 

A salesmen reckon the new Car interior will be brilliant and no "cheapooo plastic" insight

Where about can the bung the Turbo at the front, not much room there,

Rob,

That is true, accoring to my sources

If you turn the exhaust manifold(headers) & Turbo around 180* the turbo would be on front near side but I am lead to beleive it will be mounted on the drivers side. obviously the induction manifold will be also turned 180* and inlet will be at the front of engine. if you see what i mean

Tony

 

Got any pictures of thenew headers

 

mk2 2.5 N/A engine is out in the forester if i recall. will see what the turbo engine is like with the new lightweight materials in it lol

 

Is that light weight as in "Mousse" rather than Chocolate LOL

R.

 

Behave

 

It will look and drive like utter crap!

Same old, same old!

 

Here is the Saloon with the RC spoiler on From HT AUTO's






Although personally i'd prefer a low level "Hooped" spoiler like the MY99=00
