The 2015 STI

Anyone else besides me think the new 2015 STI looks kind of like a Evo X Even though I own a Evo IX i'm still a fan of the Subaru STI chassis, the 22B and hawk eye are among my favorite body styles. This however I'm not a fan of.

I'm really curious on what the engine is gonna be. I know the new WRX will have a 2.0L turbo FA20 motor, but I wonder if the STI will also have a 2.0L or maybe they'll develop a FA25.

It is much better looking than the X imo, and hopefully will have a usable trunk. Shave the wing and it can actually be driven to a job that requires wearing nice clothes. I'm excited.

I'm guessing not only were they going for the looks but also the feel as well. That's according to motor trend anyways. Here are a few excerpts
From their first test drive

"About a quarter mile into my first stint in the new 2015 Subaru WRX, I thought, “Wow, this ride really is firm – like Mitsubishi Evo firm.”

"Beyond the numbers, the 2015 Subaru WRX now feels and behaves like an Evo, and I’m not referring to just the rigid ride. The gearbox is reminiscent of an Evo GSR’s – relatively short throws and a bit notchy – "
