- Heated seats and side mirrors (also Alaska necessity)
- Push button start/stop with Bluetooth keyless entry (makes me giggle every time I touch my handle and unlock both doors)

I can get over the spoiler with all those other things added in.
Word. The only thing on that list I wanted was the keyless access, but it's not worth $2k to me. I guess I'm just cheap. I'm using that excuse to justify buying a V1 and a better exhaust

This car is already beyond max price for what you get IMO, the Limited is just a ripoff. If I got a BRZ it would definitely be the Premium. Although I like the exterior styling of the FR-S more anyway.

Another "nobody" here.

I don't care much for the leather seats, push-start engine, or touch screen nav. My iPhone does fine as a navigator, and it can give turn by turn directions through the bluetooth system in my FRS. I also love the feel of a turn-key start, so a BRZ premium or FRS is fine with me.
