I'm not really bent out of shape. Just don't think they have added much performance. It will look good. Just won't perform much more than a regular BRZ.


I could care less about FI. I do care about performance though. Please let me see on the STI BRZ at some point:
  • Better brakes
  • Better suspension (they are doing some of that on this one)
  • Better weight (100-200 lbs lighter would be cool)
  • Power (no FI needed, pump up the NA power 25-40 HP and higher rev limit!)
Doesn't need a lot more. But they aren't doing much so like I said, not much to write home about.
