1) I thought all BRZ trims came with Nav, this one didn't.
2) Steering wheel is small and the "leather wrap" felt cheap, have any of you retrofit a bigger one that comes with the audio controls from factory?
3) Is the Performance Pack worth it for the extra $3k? I also noticed that the braking wasn't as good as I thought it would be considering how light the car is.
4) What is the most common problems of this car? Have any of you that have owned '13/14 developed any interior trim rattle? I know that this is a relatively reliable car but every car has its common problems.
Thanks

I put about 37k miles on my 2013 FRS and had zero problems, and never even had interior rattles. I drove that car everywhere, commuted with it, and took it on a few road trips, and I drove it hard. It still seemed like a new car pretty much when I traded it in for a pickup. I miss the heck out of the car, and will be adding another one back into my garage hopefully soon. I just needed the pickup for a lot of utility at the time...
I'd pick up the Premium out of the two, because the car is really about the basic driving experience it delivers, rather than the luxuries, though I think its comfort is actually underrated.
