I'll wait and allow others to be the guinea pig.
I will probably go square to keep the balance and allow for rotation. May increase width but likely just good summer tires will do the trick. ...

I won't deny that these featherweights are great fun. In fact, that's why I almost threw practicality out the window and got the s2000 over the 335i. Then common sense kicked in and reminded me I...

They're 19" VMR 701's. That picture is roughly a year old. Need a new photoshoot as I've since upgraded sideskirts, bumper, lip spoiler and vented hood.

Again, this thread is about comparing the BRZ to a 335i. The only way they compare at a similar price point is used vs new. And you can get a used CPO for roughly the same price as a new BRZ. So...

Looks great but for what will likely be 4-5k more, I'd rather go aftermarket. Need power mods or not worth it.
Roof and hood won't make it. Brakes look nice but probably aren't needed on this...

Am I the only one not excited for a battery strut bar?! Put the money elsewhere. Start/stop button does look nice. Hope the fob doesn't have to leave your pocket.

Another thing, if you aren't taking it to the track, a 25k used 335i will make more sense in most cases than a new 25k FRS/BRZ.
