The 2017 and 2018 are virtually the same with the exception of the radio head unit and the turn signal functions. The chassis are the same. Knowing this, I bought a 2017 (10/17 build) at a very good price April 2018. I was going to order a 2018 and pay cash, but the sales manager wanted to sell his last 2017 (wrong color) and gave me a hard time. Went to another dealer 30 minutes away and got exactly what I wanted and then bought an Ascent from the same dealer. I can't help myself from telling this cautionary tale about letting customers walk off the lot. Anyway, the only thing I did for my BRZ is change out the tires and left all else alone which suits my purpose. The general consensus among myself and my buddies is this: start with tires, then brakes, suspension and go from there. The seconds or fraction of seconds you may loose because of power can be made up by being able to go faster through the turns. A to B is never a drag race in a straight line. That is knuckle dragger stuff.
