"Subaru BRZ

2013 Subaru BRZ: Don't expect any significant changes or additions to the BRZ for at least at year, but we've got good money on a turbo version (STI?) showing up inside of two years. It would, after all, be stupid to ignore the obvious goodness of such a car.

Subaru Impreza

2014 Subaru Impreza WRX/WRX STI: Expect a redesign for the WRX and WRX STI in 2014. Rumors are all over the place regarding the next generation WRX and WRX STI powertrains. Most prevalent as of this writing is the idea of an electric-powered turbocharger. We're not even sure if such a device can be called a turbocharger, but here's how the rumor goes: Heat energy from the exhaust gas would be used to produce enough electricity to power the air pump (turbocharger?). Simple physics and history have both shown this scenario to be implausible, but, hey, we're just sharing the rumors."
