Show Notes
Ever since we saw the three new Manual cars that Subaru said they were developing a few months ago, we have all had questions.
And recently, with hearing some of the news that came out of the National Dealers Meeting, coupled with the realization that most of the STI 6-Speed transmissions have been discontinued, this has been top of mind again.
Love Cars TV actually published a lot of the actual Subaru Press Release at that time, and I decided it was a good time to go back and watch that again, and see how it lined up with what we now know.
And he got to sit down with Subaru's Chief Technical Officer, Tetsuo Fujinuki after the Press release.
If you haven't watched that yet, definitely go and watch it after you watch this video. Here is a link to that:

I think that there is a lot to look forward to for 2027, and especially 2028. With any luck, in a few weeks after the Japan Mobility Show, and maybe the Tokyo Auto Salon, we will have a better idea of what Subaru is cooking up.
What do you think? Are a lot of good things in the works from Subaru?
Thanks for watching and Stay Tuned!

If you own a car, it is pretty much a given that at some point you will need to take it to a shop to get some kind of work done.It could be that you just need to get your oil changed, or a new set of tires put on.But if you have a car that you have started to modify, or you are looking to start a build on your car, there is a good chance that you will need to find an experienced shop to help you along the path with your build for anything from installs, fabrication, set-up, tuning, etc.For this conversation, we sit down with Dan from Mach V Motorsports and Tony from Turn in Concepts to talk about the best practices to find a shop to work with.What is the best way to initially reach out?What kinds of questions should you ask?How important is budget?What if you have a problem you can't figure out?We get into all of these questions and more.Thanks for watching and Stay Tuned!
What happens when NASIOC goes down and doesn't come back?What about these new WRX and BRZ Anniversary editions?We had a plan for this episode of the podcast, but when NASIOC went down at the beginning of the week, and with all the discussion about the Limited Edition WRX and BRZ from Boxer Fest, that plan was pretty much thrown out the window.I'll also mention that Dewey was at the IAG Mother Ship for this episode, so his audio had a few glitches, and there wasn't anything that we could do to fix it in the edit. This was a great conversation and I hope you enjoy it.Thanks for watching and Stay Tuned!
Rally Colorado was a couple of months ago now, and we had a rare opportunity at this event.
Subaru's and Dirt Roads go hand in hand. But over the last decade or so, lots of you have been taking your Subaru's much further, and into more challenging terrain.
