Up until now, the USMB has been split by engine style.  EA81/82, and EJ.  Now, the new Imprezas, Crosstreks, and Foresters (I think?) have a complete different engine, the FB.

 

Wouldn't it make sense to split vehicles with FB engines into their own forum?

 

There is a Crosstrek area, but that is a bit limiting, especially since it isn't really that much different to an Impreza.

 

Any thoughts on this?

 

 

kinda makes sense

I think the issue is that the new cars really aren't that different. Its still Legacy, Outback, Impreza, Forester.

The generational split of

GL/DL/Loyale etc., to Legacy/Impreza/etc., came about with the change from EA to EJ. Entirely different vehicles.

Aside from some new gadgets and gizmos and some skinnier body panels, the current generation of Subarus is mostly the same as what they were back in 2000.

 

The BRZ has its own sub-forum, but that model may not even be around much longer.
