Subaru Coupe spy shot

Toyota has already provided two early previews of its born-again Celica - the FT-86 - and the car is expected to star at the Australian International Motor Show in Melbourne in early July.

But sales of the Celica - or could it become a Sprinter, after the Corolla AE-86? - are not timed until 2012 and that gives Subaru plenty of wriggle room for its version of the Japanese go-faster coupe. But Carparazzi knows what people want and it has stripped the camouflage from the Subaru version of the FT-86 to provide an early hint on what will eventually get to showrooms.

The computerised Carparazzi view - one of four exclusive pictures in Carsguide this week - shows a similar profile to the Toyota coupe but with more chunky Subaru detailing and a bonnet scoop directly related to the Impreza WRX and STI that headline for the brand.
