GT86 update - guesses and wishes

I am curious what people think will be actually be part of the 2015 upgrade, and what people would *want* for the 2015 upgrade.

My honest guess:
- 15-20 hp bump through tune (easy to reflash to existing cars)
- Minor reliability upgrades
- Minor suspension changes, like the uprated tS arms
- Aesthetic changes to the front and rear
- New wheels (these are a standard refresh item)

Pricing: ~$500 bump from today's prices

My wish:
- Optional tS upgrade package with real brakes, etc.
- 2.5l motor
- Additional weight saving on the front end

Pricing: <$38K total for the upgraded version

I suspect they won't offer my wish option until year 4 or 5. With a six year lifecycle, they will want to take it slow. Too bad for me.

Of course, since most of you are already owners, you might hope they make it worse
