I believe this car has been built for Subaru Australia to use as a factory entry in Targa Tasmania and other Australian tarmac events. Though a production 4WD BRZ will eventually be marketed, I can't see how this model will have any connection with Subaru's return to WRC.

That Subaru looks good, although I miss a bit of rear spoiler :p :
I will ask my sources. ATM, all I know is that they are developing a 1.6l turbo engine. The production engine was displayed at 2011 Tokyo Motor Show.Quote:

Arigato :) BRZ can be used as a basis for R5 car because it has 4 seats and because it is made in more than 2500 pieces per year.
Lappi will drive 2 tarmac rallies in spain next time
Mikkelsen will get the 3rd Polo WRC. His first rally will be portugal
