Im excited to see the many different factory wheel variations, but anything forged from the stealership will be RAPE!

wow that looks really good... visually they keep beating my expectations, i never thought a car company could ever create a car design that i couldn't find a single thing i didn't like. i can attest that the translations are quite accurate.

I love what I'm seeing so far. I'll take the front lip on the modellista leak though. It's better looking imho.

As far as the wheels, I like that they're going for the 5 spoke split spoke style. But they should make em like the ones they have on the LFA.

That being said obviously no ones holding a gun to my head to purchase these extra parts but it just seems that the $$ signs of owning one are climbing...
Especially with Scion's strict pricing... these parts going to be dust magnets.

^x2 but im ok with that id rather pay around 30k for the car up front and have a warranty on everything. Only aftermarket mods i would do is audio and wheels.Than buy a base model,wait 3 yrs for warranty to run out,then start modding it.

well for me it all depends on a couple of things.
1.When/if the us gets the brz sti
2.which is cheaper with equal spec sheet aka all the up grades i can get on the frs.

so its a race. rdy. set. GO! Which do you guys think will be cheaper i want all the trd upgrades save for the wheels. CCW classics will be on this car.

A big reason is for liability with passenger load. Say you have a light driver up front and two really heavy people in back. Car becomes more rear biased, so they usually make cars default to understeer.

Thats the real question...

I hate the front bumper...

I hope to god they release the front lip that's been on the concept II and all the mules. That is the only lip so far that looks good for this thing. Rear end I'm not a fan of but its better than most of the alternatives. Side skits have been pretty good for all the options. Spoiler *drools*.

Whoa awesome!!! So happy and cannot wait to see this in other colors! TRD of coarse..

Well we can be positive and hope this is a package with another performance/sport one as well. Kind of what Mustang did with the MCA package and performance package.
