I’d rather not have a rear spoiler but I want everything else the Limited model. Maybe Subaru of America will monitor these forums and make the rear spoiler as an option delete on the Limited. I would even pay extra not to have a spoiler.

I think there must be one. The STI spoiler holes do not appear to line up with where the Limited's spoiler holes are. It'd be pretty sloppy of them to remove the limited's spoiler and replace it with the STI, leaving unneeded holes in the trunk.

The STI equipped demo car is the Japan spec BRZ, they have 4 or 5 different models overseas. Here in the US we only have 2, premium and limited. Limited is a package that includes the rear spoiler.

I bet there is a spoiler delete option, and I would prefer it that way. However since some of us plan to get the limited at initial launch, combined with the inability to Pre-order initially, the best I can hope for is a potential swap to a duckbill spoiler down the road.

Yes, but if they offer the STI spoiler as a dealer accessory in North America, they either remove the limited's spoiler (sloppy IMO) or order a limited without the spoiler (i.e. delete option).

Dealer accessories are usually not installed.

Grinch has dibs but I'm sure a Silver or Red trunk will look bad on DGM XD and would you all be mad if i voted no because I want the spoiler lol! Then again I can't really vote at the rate these prices are going I wount even be able to afford a Premium, looks like I'll be thrown into the SCION side against my will. But BUt I want a BRZ Premium with... a sPoiler

hmmm....yeah you're right, I want you all to have the option to choose But I'm still offering my trunk if it does not have the option. Maybe you can word it so that it's an "Option" to delete on the choice, cause it seems like you either get it or not at all. maybe my english is just bad...

If you are getting Satin Pearl White I will meet you 1/2 way and swap trunk with you.

And one for push button start.

And one for steelies.

And one for blah blah blah. They're not going to cater to every single person's miniscule preferences.

well, you know they're marketing the BRZ as the more premium of the two between itself and the FR-S?

I doubt it will happen, but if there's an option for no spoiler I would take them up on it. I'm just not a fan of the design at all.
