OMG they ruined the styling. FR-S all the way...

ok so the changes from the FR-S mule:

-obviously the grille is different. it looks to have a version of the subaru corp grille.
-obviously the fog light housing is different.
-LED DRL's relocated above the fogs
-turn signals relocated to headlight housing
-it may be foam, or the lighting, but no sign of the hood lines? though curiously the roof lines remain.
-side vent now clearly shows the bmw M style bar
-production rear side windows? or just taped up/blacked out? looks weird to me. hopefully the window isnt that small otherwise that topic about blind spots just got real...

things of note:

-the exhaust tips may be production spec and not test anymore
-the rear 3rd brake light. thought to have been a temp, now looks also to be LED and production spec
-the position of the 3rd brake light makes this car a coupe, NO hatch. sorry.
