That makes two of us. Can't believe anyone is rejoicing about have a Subie engine insteat of a nice Toyota 2.0L DOHC I4. Since it's a Scion, that means it will be made "on the cheap."

I don't think it is a bad idea at all. Plus look at all of the aftermarket support for that motor. That car will be a mod machine.

Turbo kits. Built motors. I can see from 400 to 600 hp on that sucker, easier than these motors, as far as support is concerned.

To bad it wasn't the EVO X motor though.......

Originally celicas were all RWD!

Edgeman · Apr 30, 2011

So were the Corollas...which this is a "remake" of the best of the lot.

I'll probably still buy one, even if it has a Subie engine...but I'll wait a couple years to see if they make a turbo version.

My very first car was an 83 Celica GT hatchback with a 5 spd and the infamous 22RE 4 cylinder. That car drove great and I was able to beat it to death and it still wanted more. Lots of great memories of that car, just wish I had some pictures of it

It was shown on Motor Week this Sunday & was announced that it will be in dealers for 2012. No word on a Turbo & for sure will be Under Scion.

I think the 2jz Supra still looks better than this ft-86 thats just me I will still keep my x-runner its just looks better.

how much i it gonna cost to drive one of those? i want one but if its close or higher than a 370Z or G37, i might as well get a Z....

I thought it was great they chose a Subaru engine rather than a Mitsu. Subaru engine is top notch, Mitsus are just tech smart.

I think its got potential. It'll be like another srt4 i'm thinking. Something young kids with rich parents will by them.

Now if we could get Steve to Photoshop a paint job on there instead of the wrap they have on it we'd be able to see how it looks. So far I'm diggin it, minus the stupid shopping cart handle it has as a wing:thumbdown:

Most of those guys say that the design should be the FT subie version not the other Scion FRS version
