Very much want to replace the clock and airbag lights with useless racecar toggle switches! I wonder if the current stock brz's nav/radio can be set to display the clock on it somewhere.

The direction of your guessing might be not completely wrong....

But really no more words from my side

=> BTT

Me, I really love the concept!
That would be a proper BRZ "GT4" limited edition.
Would suit great the DIT conversion

another stupid concept on the fr-s/brz that'll never see the light of day. Seriously, its literally a race car, there's no way it sees production and even if it did, it'd run 45-50k easily.

I don't understand why subaru won't just drop the turbo engine they use in the current wrx and forester xt. Easy performance boost, minimal effort to research.

It feels like toyota and subaru are playing hot potato with the twins and if they don't make a leap forward with the platform, its gonna die pretty fast.

Subaru has made it clear that a FI BRZ is out of the question for this generation. I'm really hoping that updated mustache and interior makes it to the midcycle refresh. Other than that everything else could be bought aftermarket or through dealer installed STi parts.

I know someone that worked on the car with the chief engineer at toyota

I'm Tada's illegitimate son. He told me that there would be a refresh in 2035. It supposed to be FWD and turbo to compete with the hot hatches.
