The front bumper is different
Headlights are different
The taillights are a little different
The wheels are different
The BRZ does not have the 86 on it.
The Front and Rear emblems are different
The Wheel size maybe different (some specs are showing the 86 with staggered 18 inch, could be only on the highspec trim)
The weight is a little bit different...86 is at 2601 pounds...

But the cars are going to sound and drive about the same...
