New Forester - wait, hold on

[Marky]

Top Gear arrived, only almost 2 weeks late and last TGNZ ever apparently, the NZ edition has been cancelled. Read this article, if I was a betting man the writer didn\'t actually *drive* one him/herself as per half the articles

Anyway -

There was one sentence which I went wait, what and wondered if it was true or not - "Boasting a turbo version of 2.0 litre engine first seen in the GT86/BRZ"

In other news, looks like the impreza does now

WTF last issue? I renewed my subscription last year until end of year so if they aren\'t producing it I\'ve paid for something that that doesn\'t exist? How did you find out about that marky

Id call it creative writing but its hard to even call it that.

ya, so they used the 2L mill from the brz and chucked a turbo on it for that model, i dont think they were saying that its the turbo motor from a brz, anyways they "redesigned" the motor for brz. I cant see why they wouldnt use it for new models

I\'m going with typo / usual rubbish editing - the internetz would have gotten much excito about a bolt in turbo motor to for scion/gt86/brz

8.5L On paper

13L real world

Pretty sure I\'ve read that it has a turbo version of the FA20 from the 86/brz elsewhere too. Possibly nz autocar. Saw some at winger Greenlane the other day. It looks like it\'ll age pretty quickly. Even brand new it looks like an older car thanks to the styling.
