I think Carroll Shelby would approve. To me the BRZ is what a Cobra buyer in 196x would be buying now: a small, rwd, good power-to-weight, car that is designed for road and track.

I don't like white rally stripes on black though personally. Rally stripes aren't for everyone. Neither are 4 foot wings and coffee can exhaust tips.

I actually liked the HKS rally stripes w/ rockers.



And this, just because:

My immediate impression when I saw the first photo (NOT the Shelby) was that I thought it was a lowly Mustang. NEVER would I want my BRZ to come even CLOSE to looking like a Mustang. The rocker stripes on the BRZ gives me the impression of a wannabe car....

That’s not the car offered though. Dodge only produced the commemorative editions with racing stripes. They were white with blue stripes. They were only produced in 2005.

These must have been added on from the owner.

Look at this Lamewad driving a wanna-be mustang as well:


When I hear that kind of stuff, it makes me wonder if the person just got into cars or something....

I personally think this car looks so good from the factory, it doesn't take much to spoil the whole thing. Even a front lip makes the front-end to start looking too busy..these? Nah....
