Subaru killing the WRX

That would suck. Not only would it be out of current WRX owners' price ranges (probably), but it wouldn't any longer compete with the Evo!

Let this news be absolutely false. Subaru needs the Impreza sedan and the WRX model.

This is false. Look at the B9 styled grill. Subaru killed that theme nearly a year ago.

This is NOT the new IMPREZA, at least not what we can see from Japanese Media, and they will NOT stop the Impreza EVER !

That is very true. That will hurt Subaru big time I think with the down market of the STi. Wouldn't the STi still compete against the EVO no matter what price range it is in? In my opinion the STi is overpriced but the EVO is good value for money. The performance is outstanding.

This must bug the current WRX/STi owners that their model is either discontinued or down marketed.

WRX engine could find its way into Toyotas :)

STi for Subaru to concentrate on sport. WRX for Toyota to compete in compact performance. WRX and STi were kind of redundant for one brand.

That drawing is ugly though.
