You guys do know those press pictures are of the conceptright? There still is no indication that it'll be on a production car.

We'd just have to wait for the announcement.

Yea, welcome to the last two pages :p

EDIT: I do like the updated vents on the inside and the seats though.
Oh and I also like what they did with the moustache up front.

Soooo... let me get this straight... This is just a concept to help SOA sell STI parts ?

Hmmm... So there isn't going to be a lot of cheap low mileage, paint corrected, clear bra wearing, never driven in winter BRZ's on the used car market this year when the fanbois trade up ? Damn :(

They could keep it stock looking on the outside and just put all the tasty bits underneath, and I'd be ok w/ that :)

Overall, it is an interesting concept but I'm guessing by the time they (or you, if they don't sell it as a package) add all the bits and parts it would cost enough that I would spend my money on a C7 'Vette instead.

Oh have little doubt that there will still be at least 10 that jump on the "see I told you there was changes coming" or "I think it is a concept" bandwagons! That is just what happens when they don't read beyond the first post.

I think a second experiment is needed

I think the first was pretty conclusive actually but a verification audit of continuing applicability may have value.

Agreed. But I dont see where they couldve hidden the mechanical key hole in that picture, which tells me its probably gonna stay a concept :\

I also wouldnt want to pay for an entire door just to get new handles :(

Not sure how SoA could sell those tails here in the States - not legal. They'd need to style them in a way to allow for a rear side marker. EDIT: Looking at more pictures, the tails aren't flush as they first looked in the further off pictures, but stick out like the current ones do. As long as there's a lit sidemarker, they should be good to go.

I like the bumper too - but I don't know that it would work with stock fenders or headlights. The headlight housing looks a little different to me in the pictures, so it may not fit properly, and those fenders look wider.

Here's the 2016 GT86 from toyota's website, if they make this BRZ I would think there would have to be a separate line for the BRZ, 86, FR-S. Time will tell but since it's on the same stage as a race GT86 it's most likely going to be a race version of some sort.
