BRZ STi finally coming?

After years of high winged BRZ's being shown in concept form. A high winged BRZ is being tested. Do I see a hint of intercooler in the grille? These cars

These cars are already beginning to look dated so a turbo would spruce things up...

I don't see any hints of an intercooler... nor do I see any scoops that might feed one mounted elsewhere =(

I think they just riced out a BRZ and slapped an STi badge on it, same as every other 17 year old kid.

It's just STI badging and a big wing, nothing else. All show and no go!

Aaaaah! Not AutoBlog again.
They don't have the greatest track record in discovering new variants to existing models (although they are a bit better at identifying new models under development).

Red callipers. It MUST be a performance model. LOL!

Just get a stock one and slap a Jackson Racing supercharger and one of a gazillion aftermarket wings (or a picnic bench) on it and it's good to go!

I thought there already was an STI BRZ, and it was just a body kit.

This Subaru BRZ With a Big Wing Almost Definitely Isn't a High-Power BRZ STI
