Buy a used GX470 for the wife, and maybe buy one or two mods for my car. It's still stock.

If forced to buy an 18 I hope it is because I was rear ended and my 14 front bumper is ok so I can just swap.
Oh wait, there is no 18 Lava. I guess I would look pretty silly driving a blue car with an orange bumper.
Still the better option though.

86 front end vs the cost of repainting the old bumper. Pretty close call, but the 86 front end doesn't look as bad in real life. It looks horrid on pictures though IMO.

Well I was just joking about the bumper swap. If I had to replace the car today I would just go BRZ and be done with the 86 bumper completely. I am not a fan even in real life.

I'm not the biggest fan either and I would also go with the BRZ if I went to buy one today. I can understand how it got green lit after I saw it IRL, but whenever I see pictures, I struggle to see how that design got approved.

Don't flatter yourself because your car is obviously dated and ugly and one must compensate.

Yellow.. like dude.. yellow........


Have you even driven a car before, because I've driven everything from BMW to NSX and clearly have much more visual experience as to what looks good.
LOL... When the nerd triggers YOU.
