Toyota definitely gets the better front bumpers.

Also its still N/A, which is kinda cool, but with an STI badge I expected a turbo.

The only STi badge on that thing is on the center caps of the fozzy STi wheels that they fitted. I have a feeling that it is not the STi trim. Also no upgraded brakes, that would be a real departure from STi trims of yore.

I would suspect that that might be a spec C or some such stripper racing car.

 
I can see 08+ STi Brembos on it, and what seems to be little STi badges on the side skirts and front lip.

AN's unnamed sources indicate that this engine will use a twin-scroll turbocharger and a new direct-injection system that will help give the engine an estimated 280 horsepower and torque that could be in excess of 250 pound-feet... still being sent to the rear wheels. The turbo'd BRZ will reportedly be making its debut for the 2014 model year, but it isn't clear if Subaru will simply call the car a BRZ Turbo or if it will finally deliver the BRZ STI

Something I saw in AutoBlog last week.

Excellent baselines to work with!
