Reality is, in automotive platform sharing terms, it IS lightly modified. But on a relative scale. The best example being the Nissan FM chassis architecture, whereas the Z, G coupe, G Sedan, Murano, FX, and the smaller Infiniti SUV are the same platform. The difference between a BRZ and an Impreza is about the same as a G coupe and G sedan. People seem to have little trouble accepting the G relationship, but the stretch between an EX35 and 350Z or BRZ and Impreza is flat out impossible to some people. To the unenlightened the name is more important than the engineering.
And I get a kick out of people using irrelevant facts to prove a point. Different CoG and clearance proves different chassis is fucking hilarious logic.
I'll stop now, though.
Heh...

So you honestly believe the difference between a BRZ and Impreza is "about the same" as the difference between a G35 coupe and sedan?
Wow I expected more from you for some reason.
I used to own a 350z. You should look up the list of compatible parts between the G35 coupe and sedan, and compare that to the Impreza and BRZ. It's not even close to being the same.
