Did they say anything about Brembos in a year? Pretty please?

They didn't say that the new brakes were the same as the old brakes. I would guess/assume they are but I don't know.
They just said the braking system was the same in both new trim levels, and there were upgraded pads (not sure if standard on premium trim or just an available accessory like the TRD pads before).
So TL,DR I don't know. My gut tells me it's the same setup as current non-brembo cars and the upgraded pads are akin to the current TRD ones.
And they have not mentioned brembo package - but they did mention that there's "good stuff coming".
I amused myself fishing for reactions - Like I would ask a question and just watch their faces as they responded. Sometimes you could tell they weren't allowed to confirm/deny stuff you asked but their face would give away that they were keeping something quiet.
Like I noticed that the trunk had a seam across it - so basically the top rear (lip area) is technically a different part than the rest of the trunk. I just said, well, this means you can offer various lip/spoiler/wing options and they can be interchangeable without leaving holes if somebody removes or swaps...
The guy looks at me holding back a shit-eating grin and just says "that's um.... very possible." and smirks a bit.
