2015 sti

I might get some slack for this but is it just me or does the 2015 STI kinda look like an EVO X at certain angle especially the side.

It's the Subaru Evolution! Not to mention they are using the same 2.5....they need to get on the bus with their Japanese counterparts and switch to twin scroll etc. Although, that interior is pretty hot.

The 2015 wrx turbo is twin scroll....Im gonna make a safe assumption the sti got one too.

I don't think some of you caught it but the new layout of the motor has the turbo sitting low and close to the exhaust ports = quicker spool than the previous years with the longer header and up pipe combo.

^^Call it STEVO. The interior looks beautiful. And the launch edition with WRB and gold looks nice too.

I knew about the WRX, and was actually really glad to hear about it. However, as of the recent press posts I've read, they are using the same old EJ from 13. The only differences are in everything else. I might be wrong though since no real in depth info has been released yet. Or I missed it.

Am I the only one that thinks those 18's look tiny with the new body? Or maybe it's sitting high...
