2014 Subaru BRZ STI To Have 280 HP

Despite consistently denying that such an official project is in the works, a turbocharged version of Subaru's BRZ sportscar will likely be ready for production by the 2014 model year. According to reports, not only is the project in its advanced development stages, but it was done entirely in-house by Subaru without any input from Toyota (with which it developed the car originally).

When this Subaru BRZ STI with around 280+ hp and 250+ lbs. ft torques I want to see a comparison between this car and the Porsche Cayman and Cayman S.

I know Porsche is Overprice and cost way more and they do not compete directly against each other. I'm just interested in the seeing the performance aspect of it because they're both sports car.

I thought that they didn't need anymore power?

Then 2014 Datsun 240Z will have to be 280HP+ as well to compete.

@freeagent,

they need that Spoiler for performance enhancement. It suppose to help with reducing the amount of drag created by the car and to help with generating down force on the tires to increase traction.

This car, if made, will do some real damage.

I think Subaru might as well give this Sti BRZ Sti version around 320-340 hp and 350+ lbs. ft of torques so it will destroy the competition : )

Yes, Lexus, I know what a spoiler is for, but this rendering makes the car suited for someone in their 20's. If a cayman, corvette, F-type, etc., can all do without a jr high school appendage, then the BRZ should be able to as well.

@freeagent,

I'm pretty they could but it will probably cost them more money and than they have charge more for the cars and than they will probably sell less which is something they don't want.

And isn't this car was design for someone in the 20's anyway? I mean someone in their 30's usually goes for a G37 coupe, 335i coupe, BMW M3, Audi A5/S and MB C350 coupe etc...?
