Boom! Thank you Toyota for solidifying my decision to no longer look at you as an option. Subaru BRZ here I come!

I'm not liking all the black plastic and the cheesy fake? finned side vents. Wasn't that the main gripe of the BRZ front, the big black plastic mustache? Not long after getting my 2013 firestorm Fr-s a guy asked me "Is that the new small Ferrari? ;-) Made me want to get the car de-baged. No body will be mistaking the 2017 for anything exotic. Not an improvement, the original is cleaner, classier, and sportier looking.

I'd much rather have an aggressive car that looks a bit plain than a slow car with "aggressive" plastic crap hanging off it.

A stock FR-S and aggressive are two words that really don't go together.

You can always make it "aggressive" through your own means. Look at Ken Guchis FRS -
