Just swap it for the 05, I'm sure there are a lot of people willing to swap.

I speculate that your speculation is right on the money.

I speculate that all speculations posted here are just... that until the unveiling. There are a ton of photochoppers out there including 3d modelers that want to see people's reaction by just making up something that looks close to real. So, until the cheese is made and presented officially, I will not believe the garbage out there.

I read from the April issue of Super Street about the next STi. As far as the article says. the STi is going to be BOTH sedan and hatchback variant. Then engine is a 2.0 liter (probably japanese spec) and it will produce over 300hp (we all know that already im sure).

This has been fact for quite a while. Shortened-wheelbase Legacy chassis to take advantage of the newer (and better) multi-link rear suspension, and a great opportunity for an improved interior design. (Personally, I miss the simplicity of my old 04's interior).

08 STi's should have at LEAST 350HP and 350WTQ

They need to step it up...
For god sakes, a G35 has more power than the STi now.
