Latest Subaru BRZ Spy Shots

**West** · 09-06-2011, 12:27 PM

Looks like Autoblog got some recent spy shots of the soon to be debuted Subaru BRZ coupe prototype.

Our elite squad of highly-trained spy photographers has nabbed a handful of new photos of the soon-to-be-unveiled Subaru BRZ. The front engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe was spotted out and about on public streets wrapped in suitable camouflage ahead of its debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show next week. Subaru says that the BRZ moniker for Boxer engine, Rear-wheel drive Zenith, but it sounds more like a phonetic interpretation of a weedeater to us. Nomenclature aside, we're told to expect good things from the coupe. Word on the web is that Subaru may use the vehicle to unveil a new 2.0-liter direct-injection four-cylinder engine.

Even more interesting is rumors that the coupe will use a similarly new six-speed manual or automatic transmission. Either way, we'll know more when the Japanese automaker pulls back the sheets in Germany next week. Stay tuned.

That cammo is ridiculous. Notice how the fender vent is clearly visible in some pictures, and just gone in others. I hope there's a lot of padding under that hood.

Notice the 5 e30 m3 in the background?

Looks like one of the two we saw months ago running around the ring. I hope both are offered in the U.S.

I actually like this version better then the one with the giant spoiler and lower body panels. Still hating the fender vent. I was hoping they'd keep that hidden so I could still dream the car would come "cheesy" free.

Needs more low.

The tails look ugly. I'll take the version 2 or 5 axis tails please. The wing is weak too. I actually like the ground effects on that mule car. It's nice to see that they put them on the track. Maybe they did some real testing for aero with it?

Thanks for sharing.
