My wild ass guesses?

Kneepads and rear armrest on base models, and another special edition like series 10 and monogram. Maybe Scion gets Release series, and BRZ gets STI.

No major changes, just small incremental improvements...

One guaranteed improvement for dealers is a higher MSRP.

OT: Did you have the Phantom before you did the exhaust work? I'm stock other than the TRD <joke>75HP/50TQ</joke> filter and the OFT. How do you like the Phantom?

I honestly don't give crap. I put my order in for a 2014 Ultramarine, exhaust, keyless, arriving at port in 2 weeks. I wanted a FR-S. I don't care if it's a 2012,2013,2014,2015... I just wanted the car that Tada designed and have it in ultramarine. That's it.

Btw I did hear the 2015's are coming with KERS and 4 turbos standard.

I was hanging out with Mr. Tada just the other day. He was feeling bad about how badly the current FR-S/BRZ/86 sucks. I handed him my iPad open to the "What do you hate" thread, a fresh bottle of Sake and a pizza. An hour later, he showed me his plans to address his failures. I can't go in to detail, but it involved Ninja's and a list of names of people who "hate" the car.

Nice!

I'll be with the Toyota Engineers next Thursday @ SAE World Congress in Detroit. We'll see if they will let any info slip.
