Wow, that second picture makes it look like the FRS roofline is equal to the Tundra door handle. Hahaha - because sportscar!

There is just something about the FR-S front end that looks a lot better than the BRZ.

so these are the first four you have on the lot?

One of your threads back 2 weeks ago says was in transit, so it was late delivery? Way passed the ETAs?

On Saturday I saw a truck with 6 - 8 BRZs in a rest area in Charlotte. We woke the driver and asked him where he was headed and he said NJ. I had a chance to get a good look at the lower front fascia of the car and noticed that the radiator was visible (exposed) through the black louvers. All the pictures and videos I saw of the BRZ never revealed this important detail. I did not like the view. It seems to me that pebbles, small flying objects, bugs, dirt can easily get caught on the radiator. Even though I feel that the black, plastic honey comb grill on the FRS feels cheap it does not expose the radiator like the BRZ. Major concern?

How many times are you gonna post this question? No, it's not a major concern. Not even a little.

The BRZ mustache is a turn-off

Sounds about right. When I pull the MINI in the garage beside my 4Runner, I get a good chuckle about how the roof is about door handle height.

Stuff like this always gives me a chuckle. I've put plenty of miles on various Tundras, including the new stuff, and it's amazing to think how much weight I've toted around!
