Spy Shots: Toyota/Subaru coupe caught in the wild
AutoExpress may have provided us with a rendering of what the new RWD Subaru coupe might look like, but Winding Road’s hired spies have provided the real deal. Shot outside a test center in the UK (amidst white-out conditions), the camo-clad mule is sporting some body panels pilfered from the current Legacy, but with a Toyota emblem in front, a pair of Recaro buckets inside and a shrunken trunk, there’s little doubt that this prototype is more than just your standard sedan.
There’s still no confirmation about what kind of output the 2.0-liter flat-four will be producing, as estimates have ranged from 180- to 220-hp, but grunt is expected to be shoveled to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual gearbox and pricing should start a few pennies shy of $20,000.
