Yeah Subaru has the FB20F (2.0 turbo in WRx) which is much newer than the STi engine.

Presumably that will yield the engine in the next generation STi

Seems like even less reason to buy the current Sti at new prices. It's about to be outdated. Buy a used one and rebuild the engine for durability, then go to town.

Z34's VQ37 is old but i don't see a Z35 on the horizon ($$$ reasons). They'd probably use the Q60 engine. It might lose a manual transmission, a deal breaker.
