Necroing this thread, but assuming some of you have returned your leased cars, any regrets? Thinking of a 24 month 2017 BRZ lease, would likely just do the Open Flash Tablet with the Stage 1 (e85 is unobtainium around here).

Exhaust was a pain to return to stock, owing to rusted and rounded bolts. Everything else was relatively easy (TRD Quickshifter was easy to return to stock, as were the mtec shift springs). I did snap a bolt trying to remove my lightweight crank pulley (never wrench when tired or crunched for time).

Oh, and if you plastidip, make sure you have a pressure washer and remove it all prior to returning the lease.

I wouldn't do anything unless you buy it at the end...
I would do HID, tires, brake pad, and go track all day....

I'm thinking tires and OFT stage 1, that's it...

... unless I buy it, then headers. But I'm reading around, and I'm getting the feeling that a new model/platform is going to be coming out, and it's going to be turbo.

I dont know where you get that feeling from..turbo is not anytime soon.
But there is a chance they will use FA22 240hp instead of FA20 200hp

Truthaboutcars.com articles, I think. Had like 940301 BRZ tabs open at one point :confused0068:

On the tips... You ever see any good matte black tips? For stock?

Im 1 year into my 3 year lease. I have pbm coilovers, perrin cold air intake, red out tailights with night shades spray. Comes off easy with brake cleaner.
I plan to buy at the end too, but, you never know. I have all my stock stuff in the garage.
Hopefully by the time i buy it at the end of the lease, there will be individual throttle body kit on the market!!!
