How long do you think Development will take once you figure out the direction you are going to go?

Im guessing Probably 3 months. seems like that's an average time to go to design to fabrication. I'm sure there will be multiple iterations to test fit and make sure all the electricals up to snuff and functioning properly

Yeah, I loved everything about the FT-86 and that's what caught many of our eyes. It was just a very simple yet aggressive look and that's what I thought it would become until I saw the MKII and had to SMH for a moment. When I play GT5, I still drive the FT86 over the GT86.

I don't mind the FR-S b/c it is what it is but I think Dezi messed it up. I mean, look at the dude! He looks like an 80's rock star who is still stuck in the 80's.

BRZ headlights FTW, the headlights and interior upgrades (HVAC/NAV) is what switched me over to the BRZ

In all the renders they appear to be black or really dark gunmetal grey

Yeah I know that was a breaking point that made many jump ship from the FRS to BRZ
I originally was going to get a BRZ but got selected for the first 86 and I was planning on pulling out the seats and re doing the interior anyways so FRS was a wise choice for my plans

Yeah a lot of people seem to have mix feelings about having a partially blacked out headlight with chrome. I think in some cases it looks nice and can give headlights a better look but in the BRZ headlight I think it takes away from the look

I am surprised that none of the brz owners have blacked out the chrome on their headlights yet (or if they have I just haven't seen it posted)

Please, no BRZ headlights.. If I wanted a BRZ, I would've purchased a BRZ. No offense to the BRZ guys, but IMO and like others have mentioned, BRZ headlights have too much going on.

I'm confused, so where's the option for the production 86/GT-86 HID/LED headlamps?
