It sure would be nice if the front bumper addon lined up with the fog lights, so you didn't have a line of yellow between the two black sections. Also, the tow hook covers seem to be barely hanging on.

Whoever put this pre-production car together should be fired.

Not sure if I like that spoiler, it's like they supersized the stupid OEM one and morphed in to be a lip spoiler. Not unlike those camaro spoilers that extend beyond trunk and have 3 pieces.
The rear diffuser looks like it needs to go on a diet compared to JDM TRD. Maybe it just looks awkward in these photos.
And if this is how final production looks that's disappointing, looks very cheap but that may be a good thing for those wanting to keep price down.

If they wanted to keep it cheap though, wouldn't they just use the current molds and not waste more time developing/adjusting new TRD lip parts?

Supposedly the seats are all black and come with toyota T pattern on it. I kinda wish it was leather/alcantara with yellow stitching in the car lol that'd be cool

From the first photos on a page back, cheap stock wheels. And no mention of TRD ones in featured items. Will be option.

I actually kind of like the whole package. Maybe I will pick one up used in a few years.

Why no red stitched knee or console pads? Why no alcantara? Why no seat heaters?

IMO the best option is the Monogram. Nothing missing from the highest end trim level, and available in the main colors.
