I like the the radiator opening on the 86 better, and the sharper creases inboard of the headlights on the bumper. I also like the silver tach. However, the I much prefer the BRZ's silver dash trim. Honestly, beyond that minor interior color differences and front bumper, the cars seem substantially the same. See also, the Saab 9-2x Aero and the Impreza WRX Wagon.
Unfortunately, I doubt that the FR-S is going to be getting optional push button start, heated leather seats, or optional HIDs. I have become accustomed to those things and would like to have them if they're available. The HVAC controls on the BRZ Limited are also just so much cleaner. I'm not even a huge fan of automatic climate control. I've had it on most of my cars and I would rather command the HVAC by feel of the air coming out of the vents than some arbitrary number. However, the FR-S and base model HVAC controls look like they came out of a children's Powerwheel. Pass.
BRZ Limited for me, for now. When I get to see an options list for the FR-S, that may change.
