Is it sold as a complete package? I've just seen previously everyone frothing at the mouth for some bigger rotors. I guess I don't understand the performance package anyways unless you can't do the work yourself or want it rolled into the loan. But I do a lot of mods so done new springs and a catback doesn't cut it for me

Yeah, 2k (or less) for unique 17x7.5 wheels, improved shocks, and BBK. You could probably sell the wheels and shocks and almost make back everything you spent on the package itself.

The only way we can get the “Performance Package” right now is if we buy one of these.

Yah unfortunately with yellow as the only option... dunno why they don't just have a PP option instead of these limited edition runs with only 1 or 2 colours.

Also, probably the 86 special edition will look like the one from aussie as mentioned above.

I finally saw a 2017 86 in person the other day. I still think the new bumpers are ugly and I'm not a fan of the new LED lights, but I'll admit the car looks much better in person than in photos.
