The difference in wheel gap between the 215/40-18 of the tS, and the standard 215/45-17 is within 1/10th of an inch, so it's pretty close to the stock gap.

If it had the 225/40-18 JDM sizing, the gap would be filled a little better.

Makes no sense why Subaru didn't do this.....

@Veloist, Any updates on how sales are doing?

funwheeldrive · 04-02-2018, 03:38 PM

I got a chance to check one out in person finally. It was black and is still for sale. It looked a lot more "finished" than I was expecting. The red interior accents look great.

FWIW I looked at a tS locally and Truecar price was $2200 off of sticker. I could have bought it but went with a Type R at MSRP instead.

Two weeks after I bought my car I washed it and did some basic detailing. Here is the video for that:

Pretty steady...April-May are usually the peak BRZ sales months though.

Can't really update with official numbers (except for Crystal Black Sillica) because the search only shows 100 results. But basically what I have are:

Blue: 99 in stock, 1 in-transit, 1 scheduled built, 5 ordered (No VIN) = -11 change
Black: 64 in stock, 3 in-transit, 0 scheduled built, 1 ordered (No VIN) = -9 change
White: 94 in stock, 6 in-transit, 0 scheduled built, 7 ordered (No VIN) = -12 change

Again, I think the only accurate number is Black. The numbers are accurate when In-Stock and In-transit vehicles combined are less than 100.

Ok these numbers are accurate, was able to look up each region’s numbers instead of nationwide to prevent the 100-unit search cap.

I wish anything in there could be updated, enabled, changed, etc. Would be cool to be able to pull the g-force/brake pressure view's data along with the laptimer when doing a track day too.

But I personally haven't heard of anything.
