Oohh, must go test drive.

I really like these, once they go turbo I may be converting camps, or at least considering it.

Can't say I'm a fan...

weird seeing a Toyota with a Subaru engine. Either way, I'm sure soon, very soon, it'll make some very amazing speed and power.

Subaru had a large hand in designing the chassis and STI tuned the suspension for the BRZ.

Wow, that was fast. I'm sure i would enjoy driving one of these.

Much Excite. Will Test Drive.

I am not digging the rear end of the car.

I'll be test driving one as well. Cool to see that they're here already.

I like it

Re: The new Subie coupe is here
 
I like the look of the Scion version much better, but that too will probably be tamed down to something like this. A set of wheels and a big turbo would fix a lot though.

How much are these? I thought they were supposed to be reasonable.

Sounds very reasonable. I'll wait and see how the aftermarket plays out before I dive in.

Seeing as how my fun car sits in winter I should prolly look at RWD ones.

cmspaz 01-25-2012 12:59 PM

Re: The new Subie coupe is here
 
As far as I've heard for pricing, the Scion model will be the cheaper of the two, starting in the low $20k range. Reasoning being that the Scion base model is further stripped down than the respective Subaru.

I've heard around $24k for the Subaru base, up to around $27-28k fully optioned.

Re: The new Subie coupe is here
 
Then add $5k for the brand new model overpaying for the first few months.

Kracka 01-25-2012 01:51 PM

Re: The new Subie coupe is here
 
Subaru engineers have stated they designed the chassis with a convertible in mind. Turbo RWD convertible? Yes please!

What was the last RWD turbo coupe in the USDM?

The S5 RX7?

Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0T

Tachyon 01-25-2012 04:45 PM

Re: The new Subie coupe is here
 
Not sure why I typed coupe, my mind was thinking Turbo RWD convertible, per your earlier remarks.

Shane@DBPerformance 01-25-2012 05:04 PM

The Miata turbo.

Needs boost.

Tachyon 06-08-2012 04:15 PM

Re: The new Subie coupe is here
 
I'm a little disappointed the torque starts falling off by 6500. It could use much larger cams.

The tq drop between 3200 and 4500 RPMs is quite noticeable on the street.

Even in 1st gear they feel amazingly gutless, but they handle awesome.

goodhart 06-08-2012 04:35 PM

Re: The new Subie coupe is here
 
Why does the tq drop off all goofy like that?

What did Grimspeed's put down on your dyno? Any tuning solutions available for it yet?

It's a N/A boxer engine, I'm not sure why you guys would expect it to hold power past 6500 RPM.
