[00:00] What didn't it give us, Filippo, that we really wanted? We wanted power. We wanted horsepower. Subaru has teased a WRX and a BRZ performance model. Unfortunately, it's a TS. The new WRX is the greatest WRX ever made.

[00:13] And I truly firmly believe that. All we want is an STI. I want to be clear. We don't actually know if it'll be TS. They've said nothing about this. They released this photo, which says TS on the back. This is an official photo. The cool thing about this photo, though, is there's a massive wing,

[00:27] which makes it look like an old STI. All we want is an STI. But they won't do it. This is going to be some sort of like special handling version of the car, which is fine. Where is it going to be released? I'm sorry. The York Fairgrounds in York, Pennsylvania. At the Subaru Boxer Fest is what you're not saying.

[00:39] Yeah, correct. Boxer Fest is one of the great events of our lives. Here's a question for you. What car you show up to Boxer Fest stops the show? Manual soft SVX. Thank you. That's exactly what I was going to say. Everybody, that is not at all. Everybody, you think so little.

[00:53] Everybody's got a manual soft SVX. I'm thinking B9 Tribeca limo. But I bet we could do even better than that. That would do well. STI swap B9. Ooh, damn. What about a really nice LL Bean second gen?

[01:06] I would pay attention to that. Let me tell you something. A greater group of 05 Legacy GT owners with tinted plate frames and cut springs has never existed than this event where they're going to show off this car.

[01:20] What would it take for you to get a WRX? Gun to my head. Really? An 04 STI? No, that's not true. This? This car? Well, I've considered the current WRX. It's a surprisingly good lease special. Great lease specials.
