    My hopes are high for a new STI hatch.

    Good to see they're getting rid of that POS EJ25 engine.

    Was just sending the link to you. I know you want them to drop a new hatch!

    They won't be competitive with 2.0L. It's just too little displacement against the current market. They need to stick with the 2.5L displacement if they would like to remain a competitive choice. Frankly I wish they'd toss a boosted H6 in the thing and play the Porsche game, but they focus primarily on lightness which keeps the engine choice small. Just don't go too small or you won't have a product to compete with.

    I figure I will own a Subaru at some point with a boosted H6, and it will be paired to a STI 6-speed...LIKE GOD INTENDED!

    With Subaru of America's track record, IF they bring it to this country it will probably be available only with a CVT.
