Geez, Dragonitti. I didn't even notice he said that either. I looked at what he drove.

Sounds like a case of friendly fire!

That's a good question. I wonder about that too.

The "aero" stuff probably won't do anything major and likely will still cost $$$. The bracing and fully adjustable suspension have potential but I dunno. That's the few options I would consider.

I that ducktail spoiler. That it looks almost exactly like a ripoff of Ichitaka's is just icing on the cake perimeter. I'm pretty sure Ichitaka made his example early enough to say he predated it, but I don't really think a fight over it would help. We here know who first had the idea of a ducktail spoiler on the FRS.

Great they make body kits for their sports cars, but if you want to go really fast better buy a Toyota truck or SUV where 300 and 500hp superchargers are offered by TRD. lol

TRD offered a turbo upgrade and a supercharger upgrade for a few of their sports cars. It's just rare, but not impossible.

TRD Aero kit is nice but the rest of their accessories are just crap.. However, a lot of aftermarket shops/manufacturers in Japan have always have long and strong ties with these car makers. I am sure this car will receive plenty of aftermarket support as soon as it comes out.

I do like that duckbill--hoping it is available for the BRZ without having to go through gyrations with TRD and "that's going to void your warranty" or "you'll need to paint that yourself".

The Pontiac-style spoiler that is most commonly seen is not attractive, and the big fin is a bit much for me. That duckbill is just....right.

The "TRD IS300" comes to mind when I read this....
