I am so torn between all these cars its insane...

I really like the new silver in the 2015 model. Plus I am thinking I might want whatever minor handling enhancements they did.

I have been on these forums for a little over a year and a base FRS was always my last choice... and now its time to buy and I am confused haha.

I like the simplicity of the base FRS. Want some of the features of the monogram

I was thinking... I'll go with base FRS manual with navi and then add winjets

I started off with liking the brz but the whole mustache ordeal.... turned me off and I cant seem to un-see it sometimes. Maybe I buy a limited BRZ in the silver color and then change the front fascia with a frs and trade subi badges for toyota? haha...

I have more questions here:

1) Is it wise to get a car with a spoiler so when you ultimately do want to put an aftermarket spoiler.... you don't have drill holes and such in the non-spoiler frs?

2) For the 10 Series, assuming they are still around, can their glowing badges be turned of or modified to not glow? can they be changed to Toyota?

3) What is your opinion about the TRD parts Toyota is selling for the frs? the sway bars? wheels? lowering kit? exhaust? are any of them worth getting.... or aftermarket is a better bargain?
