    Jared said somewhere that if he was vehicle lead when the Sunburst was initially being developed he would've put a boxer in it. There hasn't been any confirmaion that this change will happen though

    No, I imagine it's as simple as Gabe just didn't want the Sunburst to have a boxer engine. IIRC Gabe mentioned that the Sunburst was mechanically based on the Evo anyway...

    Nowadays Jared is lead on vehicle team and owns a contemporary Subaru. But he also might not want to make a major change like that to a car that was in game before he joined the team; and we're basing all of this on a single passing comment he made years ago that he probably forgot about....

    What about an early model with the current engine and a facelift model with a boxer?

    That would look sick with the BX runner front bumper.

    It wouldn't make sense for there to be a factory I block and H block both in the same platform. In Subarus it's rare to even see a different block type swapped in
