There is a huge insert for the fake fender vent. I wonder what we can replace it with?

Kostamojen 11-29-2011 08:18 PM

Anyone else notice the differences with the foglight area between the blue model and the white one from the press releases?

Seems like they are different model-range models, maybe for different markets?

Alfie 11-29-2011 08:27 PM

Exactly! Different safety rules in different markets around the world~

Well the one has a extra light strip above the foglight and a chrome painted strip on the fender thingy. Not to mention orange instead of clear reflectors on the fenders.

I have been looking at the new BRZ and some angles of the car remind me of the BMW z4 coupe, I think the measurements are very similar.

The BRZ is a terrific looking car...the Z4 coupe is also one of my all time favourites.

Z4
Length × Width × Height in:160.4 × 69.5 × 50.2
BRZ
Length × Width × Height in:170 × 70 × 52

I always liked the Z4 Coupe as well. Good call in noticing the similarities.

It has a targeted price of $31xxxUSD. Let's just say its currently slated for 2013 debut and it won't be slow.

I want to clarify this, the Concept STI was not meant for the standard production BRZ car. Subaru never had a concept for the standard BRZ debuted today, only a technology/engineering clear chassis to show the underpinnings of their creation. Toyota has had 3 if you count Scions. The recent STI concept is for the STI variant.

So should wait for the STI version is what you are saying? Lol

What is the target price for the BRZ?

tripjammer 11-29-2011 11:46 PM

You know the black plastic front on the BRZ...how about swapping it out with some carbon fiber?

That will look hawt!

Looks like that's what they did to the BRZ 300 race car...

convotutor 11-30-2011 01:24 AM

I'm really disappointed with the tail lights of the BRZ.
I wish they had kept the concept tail lights. The designs dont match the front headlights. The headlights have that horse shoe swooping led lights surrounding the projector. They should have that design in the tail lights as well...
:(

Luckily the tails look sick with a few bucks worth of paint or vinyl!

Can always replace the tail-lights later... Or at some point you end up lovin' them. Or not. Lol

Caliban 11-30-2011 02:31 AM

I am sure some BRZ guy will be doing a complete front end swap with someone's FRS? lol FRZ lol

Its like what the nissan fanboys did to their silvia and 180sx = sileighty lol

Thats good, cause If the Scion is significantly cheaper, I'd get it and swap to a BRZ bumper.

Levi 11-30-2011 06:16 AM

So is STI really coming? I would then wiat for the STI. It will not have Turbo, but will it still have more power? At least less wait thanks to more use of CF?

How can the US version have 210 PS and EU version 200 PS? It means the engine has quite some potential. It was said to have an open ECU? So we can then all ge 210 PS or even more. This makes a 105 PS/l engne. Really nice.

Any STI parts, like he TRD, will be available before?


Can't wait for this:

The secret content is wallpaper download,reblog tweet or like the page and it unlock. Sorry to be a buzzkill just hit the icon on the top right the FB icon

bootlegapparel 11-30-2011 07:38 AM

Personally, the car looks awesome, frankly I'm a bit surprised at the low power output I was expecting the Subaru to have an official upper spec with about 200kw. But from what the insiders at Toyota have been saying the car is being designed to be modded. I guess they're setting up the basics and letting the individual owners determine what power the car should be putting out.
You can see the specs and new press release photos that just came out today here and here

If I get the subaru and it comes with that huge ugly chrome piece instead of the one on the JDM Subarus I'll be replacing mine with the 86 logo piece instead. I like the history and heritage that the 86 logo provides too.

The advantages of LED Car Lights are clear. They produce a very 'clean' white light, are more energy efficient, are resistant to vibrations and have an expected life that can often exceed that of the vehicle.



Didierm 12-01-2011 03:28 AM

Something a lil extra, this is what I would like to see.

I could go for those tails, make the "diffuser" carbon fiber, and duckbill spoiler though
