subaru sti coupe Subaru STI RWD Coupe will arrive 2011 Update: 3/12/2010

The Subaru STI RWD Coupe, based on the Toyota FT-86 Concept, is ready to make its debut later next year at the same time as Toyota FT-86. Word that Subaru will not be offering an all-wheel drive version of the Subara STI RWD due to added cost, which may drive the car prices up too high for an average Joe.

Subaru is well known for its all-wheel-drive brand, it was worried that a rear-wheel-drive sports car may shun Subaru customers. But that worry is no more. Check out the new rendering image from 7tune below.

Subaru rendering of the STI RWD Coupe looks like the Toyota FT-86 Concept.  Without a doubt, since both companies were jointly working on the Toyota FT-86 in many years already.  It seems like Toyota will get one version and Subraru is getting the other.  The Subaru STI RWD Coupe will get the EJ25 2.5L four-cylinder boxer engine, which able to output 250 hp.

As from experience with Sabura, it will include a turbo for its top of the line model. This render of the Subaru STI RWD is too similar to the Toyota FT-86 Concept, more likely it will change when it comes to production.  On the Japanese rumor, the Subaru STI RWD Coupe version will debut at the 2011 Tokyo Auto Show.  Would you buy the Toyota version or Subaru version?
