Final drives are the same.

I think it has been mentioned here that all Toyota AT have 4th as 1:1 and all manuals have 5th as 1:1 so the auto will be much longer geared unless they shorten the final drive.

as the manual runs a 4.1:1 final drive then it would be difficult for the auto to be much shorter.

the long gearing of the auto is one of the main reasons (along with the less than sonorous engine) that the BRZ got such a savaging by EVO.
