It's up $200 from last year with what you mentioned above plus retuned suspension. Seem's well worth it.

Hmm I didn't see any blueish hue on the STI I saw… This is Crystal white pearl.

You bought a BRZ Limited which has them standard, the BRZ Premium does not. You'd have to get them as a dealer add on with that trim level, just like with the FR-S.

Saw it listed at 24,900. Mines was around 24,500. Suspension is a hit or miss thing, the suby has a different suspension set up but i doubt people are buying that over the frs for suspension. Plus, don't we all end up getting srpings or coilovers any ways.

It's not the size. It's just very hard to judge the distance in the back end by looking at the mirrors becuase of the shape of the car. I have already scrape the ass of the car misjudging it one time.

It's not a neccesary but it's a very useful thing to have. Must more useful than auto on off headlight which would have cost same if not more than a backup camera

That price is nice. I was about to pick up a 2013 new asphalt for 23,300 but now for $1000 more I'm thinking I should wait.......hmmmm

Kind of wish I could just get a monogram with the 2015 changes from release day. Guess I'll just get the '14 monogram, hopefully a bit cheaper?
