In fact your car is much more advanced even comparing with the performance package. If I recall correctly, you have the Bilstein STI suspension from the tS. It is a joke to think that the Sachs dampers will be better from your setup. Whatever they do is dependent on the cost. Since the cost has to remain on logical levels, they cannot differentiate so much. |
I'm still very happy with my simple steering wheel and my perhaps boring and "old style" tach. It provides just the info I need and will make use of; none of the extra stuff that will just take up space or make things cluttered.

I felt our Zenki is more classy with simple design of cluster and steering wheel and everything else -the core of AE86. The kouki is fancier with some tweak in performance but i am sure come with cost of weight and money. Does it make me want to trade my 2015 for 2017? NO

To each their own really. I do see the appeal of the MY17, and I'm sure it will sell well regardless.

I'm actually happy that this facelift will help revitalize this platform as the sales and interest in these cars have declined since its peak.

I'm pretty happy with my own MY15, but I want to be safe in the knowledge that, should I need or choose to update in a few years, that there will be a more advanced / evolved version of the same platform for me to buy. Hell it might even be cheaper then, as some of the aspects of the car (that I felt needed addressing by the after market industry) may already have been addressed via generational updates by the manufacturer. |

We did get a retuned suspension but it wasn't the Sachs. |

Better stability and more sound deadening along with nicer interior == want to be more competitive with European cars (Subaru's goal for many years now, I feel like Subaru has had much more say on this new revision). Develop a Bimmer like ride -> go Geman with Sachs or Bilstein, or cap on production cost and make Japan proud -> go domestic with Showa or KYB. To be honest I don't think one setup is better than the other (of course marketing mandates the new stuff as "better" to sell cars), just different tuning in mind with the base, but seems like they are trying to accomplish the same thing with the optional parts. You are right I would never trade away my current setup for this new PP. :D [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_N5AScA-5q4"]STI MEGA TEST - STI Fast On Four - Best Motoring International - YouTube[/ame] |
Lol everyone no one is telling ya or requiring you to trade in or sell your current Zenki car for this, chill out. None of us has driven it few of us have seen one of the twin in person, about maybe three people got to be inside one. No one has driven the BRZ or the 86, you're all getting bent outta shape over hypothecals and 5hp. Enjoy in the fact that were getting a refresh that they still make this car and that you have the choice to change and other people have more choice to purchase. It's annoying to keep hearing about how awesome your purchase decision was to the old one. That's great! Congrats you have one of the greatest drivers car ever made. But listen it is great but improvements could have been made and they made it, on paper it's better just from that, still the original car is amazing. Know it, love it, and have fun, go on enjoying the discussion.

One thing I want to bring up. Sales for the twins are dropping every year, these changes wont help at all in my opinion. They did way too little to attract new buyers.
