\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Many things may come to mind when one thinks of the Subaru brand.\u00a0 Reliability(one of the most reliable brands on the market in fact), practicality, hyper active soccer moms, really exciting television commercials for their Outback model, any of these associations\u00a0would be likely and appropriate.\u00a0 What would be less expected is for anyone to associate the Subaru brand with a high end sports car, but with the debut of the new light weight, rear wheel drive Subaru BRZ STI concept at the upcoming LA Auto Show, all of that might change.<\/p>\n

While the engineers might want to argue that the “sport” in a sport car is in the engine, we intuitively know that the key, at least historically, has been evident in the visual cues.\u00a0 You know a sports car when you see it.\u00a0 Sleek, low and tightly coiled bodywork blends with STI performance touches for a sporting profile. \u00a0A hexagonal front grille, hawk eye headlights and fin-shaped fog lamps are instantly recognizable as Subaru.\u00a0 The exterior colour “WR Blue Pearl II” is a new generation of the iconic WR blue paint scheme that has adorned both racing production STI’s.<\/p>\n

The body is set-off with aero-tuned lower front spoiler and unique rear fascia, a rear wing for added down-force and a carbon-fiber roof to lower its already record setting center of gravity specification.\u00a0 The rear design features bold rear fender flares and large rear-diffuser giving way to polished stainless-steel quad-tailpipes.\u00a0 Vented rear bumper corners contribute to improved aerodynamics performance.<\/p>\n

The concept car employs the totally new Subaru “FA” Boxer engine exclusively designed for the RWD BRZ sports car.\u00a0 In order to achieve properties best-suited for the BRZ sports car, the overall structure of this 2.0-liter naturally-aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine has been designed with a square bore and stroke of 86 X 86 mm. \u00a0The inherent qualities of the Subaru Boxer engine were mated to a direct injection fuel system, which further improves combustion efficiency, running smoothness up to high rpm and high environmental standards.<\/p>\n

Phoenix Valley auto and tech enthusiasts should seriously consider taking a road trip out to Los Angeles in late November for the LA Auto Show, a popular platform for the worlds leaders in design, engineering, and electronics to debut their most cutting edge concepts and developments.<\/p>\n

Phoenix Valley auto enthusiasts should also plan on attending the Phoenix Arizona International Auto Show to learn about the most recent concepts and innovations from Subaru, as well as the rest of the auto industry, taking place at the Phoenix Arizona Convention center over Thanksgiving weekend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Many things may come to mind when one thinks of the Subaru brand.\u00a0 Reliability(one of the most reliable…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1951,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[12],"class_list":{"0":"post-1950","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-auto-news","8":"tag-featured","9":"cs-entry","10":"cs-video-wrap"},"yoast_head":"\nSubaru BRZ Concept to Debut at LA Auto Show<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Subaru BRZ STI Concept Sports Car Brand Direction LA Auto Show Debut Scottsdale Phoenix Arizona Valley\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/subaru-brz-concept-to-debut-at-la-auto-show\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Subaru BRZ Concept to Debut at LA Auto Show\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Subaru BRZ STI Concept Sports Car Brand Direction LA Auto Show Debut Scottsdale Phoenix Arizona Valley\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/subaru-brz-concept-to-debut-at-la-auto-show\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Arizona Auto News -
