BRZ Premium Sport Package Revealed for Japan - Page 3 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I think the pricing is wrong for the UK because that is about 6k less than basic list price for either of the twins...

So lemmee see if I have this right. "Premium Sport Package" comes with a whole bunch of poser crap that does nothing whatsoever to enhance the sport aspect of this car?

WTF. A bunch of retired Oldsmobile execs take over Subaru?

Ralph's better sport package:

Michelin Pilot Super Sports
header (flat torque curve)
lightweight flywheel
stiffer bushings
camber adjustments
decent brake fluid and higher temp capable brake pads (not necessarily full on track duty, just less street compromised)

They could do all of that for less cost than leather seats.

I agree with this

But then again, I'm guessing they want to leave a little wiggle room for when they make (maybe) the brz sti

Love everything except for the weird design on the steering wheel.
I wonder if it'll have any performance upgrades

tbox · 10-29-2013, 05:34 PM

They included everything from the concept but left out the most important part....that sexy exterior color

Gintsuki · 10-29-2013, 05:40 PM

Not a fan of the interior color choice =\

RRnold · 10-29-2013, 05:43 PM

What are they trying to gain with this trim package? Fix the issues first instead of trying to turn this thing into a Lexus.

HeubergerMotors · 10-29-2013, 06:07 PM

I really like it

SkAsphalt · 10-29-2013, 06:11 PM

dat cluster hood. haha. JPM coach works was ahead of the OEMs here

vangisback · 10-29-2013, 06:50 PM

Now BRZ owners are gonna want to "upgrade" to the JDM-tyte-yo Scion FRS faux carbon fiber dash trim. lol

KevinBRZ · 10-29-2013, 07:11 PM

I like it, but I wish they would just make everything available as an option. There are how many versions of this car already? 12? It's been out less than 2 years...

Pete156 · 10-29-2013, 07:27 PM

I agree with Kevin. Make them options.

Kwisak · 10-29-2013, 07:32 PM

I like everything except the brown in the interior

Suberman · 10-29-2013, 07:35 PM

Now I know which OZ wheels to fit: Formula HT. They look just like those 15 spokers.

Tan and black interior looks very sharp. Yup, candidate for yet another midlife crisis*....

Classy and pleasant to be in. Perforations may be for electric venting and cooling which is a v nice feature to have.

New exterior colours are a good idea.

Not nice enough to trade "up" though.

Where is that supercharger option?

PS * how many mid life crises are you allowed to have? I'm on my third...or fourth. The older you get the older mid life gets so you have to have these crises often to be sure you get the real thing at least once.
One word of warning: cars are way cheaper than women if you're going to have a crisis. And I do mean the most expensive car is still cheaper than an extra woman in your life. Safer too.
