RWD Impreza?
By Rob Einaudi
Editor-in-Chief
For years now I’ve been scratching my head over the dearth of affordable RWD 2+2 coupes. But now it’s looking like Toyota and Subaru have teamed up to build one. Inspired by the AE86, and they are focusing on keeping it cheap, simple and sporty. How cool is that? There is talk of the car being offered with both Subaru’s 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter 4-cylinder boxer, and apparently there will be a Toyota version of the car as well. The design is to be finalized by July and production is set for 2010. Let’s hope they keep the weight and price down. More at Autocar.co.uk.

I’m betting the Toyota version will look better, and that the Subie version will end up being AWD, since Subaru knows nothing else.

Cool Idea and Let’s hope they offer it with an All wheel drive option. It sure looks a lot like a current model tiburon to me though…
Stay Tuned as they say I guess.
