Unfortunately, I cannot give you our final model because we have done some proprietary work to it. However, this BRZ model can be purchased and is an excellent base http://humster3d.com/2011/12/15/subaru-brz-2013/ You will need to "seal" the surfaces to make the model watertight when doing CFD. We use OpenFOAM, which is open source and free to the public. You do however, the Linux to run it. If anyone were to try and do their own CFD analysis, we could help you get started.
Are all those models the same quality?

There is a GT86 and even an AE86 in the Toyota section.

I've started looking into building a desktop for this and may have some questions for you in a few months.

Thank you very much for sharing!
