My wife drives an Elantra - her heated seats actually spool up really quick.
The difference is such that initially, I wondered if the BRZ's heated seats were broken.

Do bear in mind though, cloth seats typically heat up faster (if I'm not mistaken).

I took mine for a brief jaunt down some backroads. Saw a pair of bald eagles in flight.

Yeah, I noticed that cloth seats heat up faster also. Ive tried the heated leather seats though on some of these Kias and Hyundais and they get pretty damn hot just as quick lol

at least youre in Cali. Up here its barely in the 30's when i leave for work! And since i cant lock the car while it warms up... it sucks. rather just fire the old truck up and let it warm up and drive it sans heated seats on the coldest morning because it locks while it warms up.

Where'd you purchase the wing? I've been looking into maybe picking one of these up. Is it all fiberglass or is the center piece carbon?

It's an all fiberglass replica from China, had a cousin there to help me buy it. I had the option to get it with the carbon center(also had all carbon pieces, which I should have got to save weight), but I probably would have painted over it anyway.
If only dealers sold the real ones, I wouldn't have gone through the trouble to get it.

Cool! I saw a few on Alibaba/Aliexpress so maybe I'll buy one through them...

Anyways, looks good dude! Keep up the good work!
