Wow, what an unbelievably bland video. It's telling that all the LC videos of late have been about Higgins/Drew and now that RA racing is over it switches to bland advertising.

I'd rather see an explanation of the struggles Subaru has in GRC than a 15 minute commercial. :barf:

And why was Bucky even in the commercial?? At least last season when they did tributes to Higgins and Isachsen you got some insight into the men behind the helmet. All we get here is that Bucky can stand in front of a car and tell people that he is grateful that Subaru gave him a chance. :thumbsdown:

Because they are running the 2.0 and we are still running the old motor, so of course they are going to talk about their version is better.

Enjoyed the video!

Sure we don't get the newer motor but here's to hoping that we can get the DIT 2.0 for the next generation STi here in 'Murrica soon. I'm sure they're just using the rollout of the WRX version as the testbed (aka getting real world results) before releasing to general public.

The motoring public in Japan is much more forgiving than that in the U.S.

Besides, if you want more power, the EJ257 has ~12+ years of proven development, and is just a short mod (and budget) away...
