Subaru 2008 Reborn.....WRX? anyone?

So what do you think that the guys over at Subaru is going to reveal at the 2007 Tokyo Auto Show? On their website there is a strange counter that is counting down to April 5th. It says reborn of a legend...hmmm legend...subaru...must be the WRX. Thru some of the websites like Automobile.com and Autoblog, it was revealed that it will be a new Subaru Impreza. Looking at this scan from a japanese mag, it looks like it is a far from the huge Alfa grill design...thank god it was not like the B9....more like BENIGN...

Looking at edmunds.com, it is reporting that it will have a new DCCD system and a higher torque....all 318 lbs ft. As it turns out the STi version will be a hatch back with a rear huge WRC wing on it. WOW! But I still prefer the sedan or the old coupe version. I think the engine will be the same. Japanese version will probably get the 2.0 liter and US spec will get the 2.5 liter engine. This is an exciting year since the new Evo X will also be introduce. So who will be better? Who will have an edge? We will have to wait for both cars to be introduce to find out. Looking at what Mitsu has revealed, it seems like the Evo have an edge right now. New platform, new engine, new design and new spoiler.......Until then.....we will just have to hope they can get the product to the market as fast as possible.
