Tell me Subaru isn't getting daring! Here is a 3.0L flat six twin turbo putting out nearly 400
hp! For the complete story from the 73rd Geneva International Motor Show, click

Would you like a Subaru that looks like this? If so, do whatever you can to convince the
Subaru of America folks to bring it here. They're
talking about giving it a hybrid powerplant, full-time AWD (it IS a Subaru, after all)
and a bunch of other stuff. There is talk of making a car like this as a hybrid.
Unfortunately the latest news (as of 1/10/08) is I can't find
any evidence of this sports car anywhere.
Fuji Heavy Industries, the Japanese manufacturer of transportation and aerospace-related products - and the company behind of Subaru cars has adopted Subaru’s six-star (‘mutsuraboshi’) emblem as its new corporate symbol. The company celebrated its 50th birthday on July 15.
