Standard knee pads just like with the 2014 BRZ. Not even the 10 Series gets knee pads, I believe. :rolleyes:

So regarding the comfort upgrade, is all they are doing is offering the GT86 knee pads and speaker panels or is it something more? If its something more it will be interesting to see if they can be retrofit to 2013 models.

cause the 10 series is a 2013 model... It's not like it takes more than 30 minutes to add them anyways...

Exactly, literally outdated within a month... 30 minutes + several hundred dollars.

Yep, that's it. Plug and play into a 2013 :w00t:

99.9% chance its just the standard kneepads speaker pads from the GT86 and that it can just be swapped with the crap plastic that we have in our current models. I can already see 2015 FRS' coming with the GT86 exhaust tips and raise the price another $200 and saying its new. 2016 FRS coming with courtesy door lamps for another $200 increase.

LOL, the markup on those knee pads is crazy stupid.. Subyota probably pays $5 to have them made by some kid in a Chinese factory...

Hopefully those pads will be a lot cheaper from US Subaru/Toyota parts dealer once 2014's roll out.

looks like im getting a brz

gt86 headlights not even once.............(i dont like the 10 series color, havent seen one in person though)

I dont like the headlights on the current FRS, it looks bland and ruins the look for me.

How ever im still going to wait for more information regarding to upgrades....still a possibility. (The picture on their instagram with the gt86 head lamps on white FRS with a small print of optional equipment)

Am I the only one who wishes the BRZ came with a touch screen head unit like this with physical buttons and knobs to change tracks and radio stations?
