Subaru 086A STI

A hopped upped version of the Subaru/Toyota 086. Whatever the name, it looks great.

Based on the current Toyota FT-86 concept that will bow at the Tokyo Auto Show, this new Subaru 086 STI is a take on the car but with a 2.5L turbo flat-four which will pack a bit more punch (around the 250hp range) than the regular N/A 2.0L but should still be RWD. We just hope that the exterior styling doesn’t let us down because we’re totally digging this car.

    Only 250hp??? What about the full banana 300hp turbo 4 from the WRX STI? As I said before, Subaru needs to revive the SVX name and pump up the power to make this a serious 370Z/ G37 coupe, competitor. Better yet, go with Subie's 6 cylinder and slap an STI turbo on that puppy.

    Power plant debate aside, the thought of enough power and the right chassis to drift a soobie is making me tingle.

    Team orange would jump on this, but it really should just get the EJ257 and the full 300 ponies
