I'm confused, STi wheel on this car?
Does that mean the Subaru is going to have a 5x114.3 hub while the Toyota one will have a 5x100 hub?

While I know this is a "Concept", but with this concept basing off the production ready FRS, I can't help but wonder. I can expect the bumper styling be different when the BRZ actually hits the street, but I also see lots of road ready parts on it. It would make sense to take the FRS and modify to make it look like the BRZ since they basically are the same car, doesn't make sense to change the hub just to put STi wheels on the concept.

STI wheels are not made just for STI's.

Ooops, my bad.
At a glance I thought they were the same wheels as these. These are 5x114.3. Turns out the wheels on the concept car has more spokes.

Blasphemy! I want door handles. This is absurd, I despise the idea of modernity. How dare they leave off the archaic door handle designs. And these poor quality modern door handles. You need to up the springs for greater tension. I want to be a man! To PRY THE DOOR OPEN. Ahhahaha... ... yeah ...

I still like the FRS better. When will we see the production FRS? I'm hoping it's just like the concept.

Oh I know. I just want everyone else to realize it's all in his head too. I've seen too many people just believe him.

Please refer to the thread called "Photoshops of Subaru BRZ STI Concept" it's in white, silver, balck, blue, and red. Also, wingless.

This is the STI concept, not the BRZ concept. The BRZ doesn't have a concept like Toyota's 3 car concept, Subaru only has it's the clear technology/chassis engineering concept roller, the Toyota/FRS/BRZ will be very similar and easy to exchange pieces with each other. The STI variant would not be, it's not subtle, slim and slow, it's going to be bulky and badass.

It will undoubtedly kill almost anything new in the 20-40k range with it's power, lightweight, balanced, low CoG and rigid reinforced chassis.
