I think a little wing could help, like on the Giulia gta

The BBS wheels are a bit disappointing on the car, I was hoping they’d be more concave.

I like everything except of the rear wing.

Oh yeah most definitely a reasonably sized wing looks good in my opinion. It’s the larger wings that don’t appeal to me. Spoilers are usually a terrific addition also.

I assume you are referring to the headlights but I’m more impressed by the sound. It sounds like a completely different engine. The interior sound especially. I’m curious if the interior sound is pumped in with the speakers. Also look how fast it climbs to the rev limiter. I wish I knew what they were saying. Hahaha

It is, but you can turn it off.

Yes that sound is a huge improvement inside and out, so much so that I don't really care if it's artificially augmented. Mind you the external sound here comes courtesy of an optional STI exhaust we probably won't see.

The lawnmower sound is soooo bad I’m cool with fake sound. But even in the outside it sounds way better than the 1st gen. So you don’t think the STI parts will ever surface? I’d for sure buy them if it sounds that good.

If that exhaust is a big improvement over stock I would too, even if I buy a GR86. But that STI exhaust may have problems meeting NA regs if the tips extend further from the rear valence than the stock ones do. NA got its own shorter standard exhaust tips than the ROW for just that reason with the first gen.

Not sure but IIRC the STI parts for the first gen BRZ never made it to NA.... the only current STI accessory available in Canada is a fake CF STI Door Handle Cup Protector lol.

the parts in the rear bumper, at 9:00-11:30, is that an active muffler system? it doesn't seem like it, but i can't imagine it being anything else either, it's just an odd place for automation in a car, behind the rear crash bar like that...

That looks like a ‘flexible draw stiffener’ to me.

now it just sounds like it's a reliable method of separating money from others...
