2016 FRS - Update?
Quote from moto's Xacar 86&BRZ April issue translation.
D-Series 86/BRZ/FRS
Tiny Enhancements were made such as programming logic of the power steering to accommodate a more dynamic driving scenario when in Sport mode VSC. While this has been mostly to address some complaints for overly aggressive safety over-ride of the Vehicle Stability Control systems, in OFF mode, it will allow the driver to drive it as “pure” as an old analog car as any sports car should, just as before.
^ This is mainly made for ppl with high grip tires.
The Japanese 2015 models (2016 for US) also has thicker rear panels for additional rigidity to address some slight tweaking noticed when users actually went ballistic with motorsports events using the stickiest of tires. But this hasn’t been a huge difference as most of the users of this genre modify their cars enough to address stuff like this.
^Also help correct how floaty the car feels under certain condition.
On the interior department, Japanese 2015 models have been graced with a tan/black interior combination available in the US
^I posted a photo of it at another thread
Satin silver interior trim (though we have them on the Limited Edition FRS RS1.0 in the USA in volume of 1500.
The colors haven’t been changed aside from the slight shift of the red to a lighter red, now called “Pure Red” from Lighting Red before, as well as Aslight Blue, changed from Galaxy Blue Silica, making the dark blue even darker for Toyota 86 and Scion FRS, while the BRZ’s WR Blue has shifted to a lighter version called “Lapis Blue Pearl.”
