Yup I may be getting a duckbill as soon as I see one I really like the five axis one is not bad. Funny how seeing a premium BRZ is more rare than seeing a limited. Without the fogs it looks more Audi like in my opinion lol

I am loving it so far. The only complaint i have about it is the huuuuuge blind spot it has. but that may be more of an issue of me being a little on the tall side. shorter drivers may not have that issue. I was shocked i ended up with the car. since i needed a car that day i was close to buying a 2013 genesis coupe 2.0t but that dealership was trying to rip people off and charge way to much for the car. I walked out of there, and called around and the second dealership i tried had 2 BRZ's there that were unclaimed. A blue one and a black one.

Actually I did too at first, but after getting some time with the oem spoiler in person, I'm fond of it now and will not be changing it out for the duck bill. The oem spoiler is very similar to the one found on the 2006-20011 civic si's.

You don't need to pour $5k into fixing it. It's got a 2AZ-FE engine, the same as the Camry. A replacement should be really cheap to source. If you're not savvy with doing it yourself (which you could do in a weekend with a rented engine hoist, a decent set of hand tools, a few friends and beer/pizza), you could probably pay someone to do it and have it fixed for under $2,500.

What does insurance have to do with anything? Do you need to have the tC registered to keep it?
