Idk I always thought that the black roofs on the Lexus IS and some other cars make the windshield and rear window look like one seamless transition. I'm still torn on it though, when I went to order the car they only had the black BRZ available so I've never seen the white 2017 in person

A nice tint on the windows and you have the whole black and white theme going. I don't even like white cars and I would consider that set up.

Black aluminum with body-colored tips!

It really contrasts with the car.

Oh it is all a matter of taste of course but it would be too much black for me. Especially if the windows are tinted since now all you have is two white strips across the roofline of the car.

Probably makes more sense to wrap the hood in CF but with the black on the front it might be more redundant now.

You want to be carful how much black you put on your white car. You don't want Japanese tourists slamming on the brakes when you come up behind them!

I thought you were going to say they might expect me to be a mobile tofu shop?

Just realized there's no black/CF hood. RIP, lol.

That's only because he hasn't blown up the engine and had the race engine installed yet.

I would do the tint and see if the white roof grows on you during the first couple of months. Looks mighty nice as is.

Yep! It is that classic simplicity that works so well together in my eyes.

All this talk is just renewing my impatience for receiving my car that I had finally gotten to calm down the past week.

The RF Miata will be out by the time this sucker is out :/

It is all Jefe's fault for resurrecting the thread.

I did not have to order it. There were two on the lot, one DGM and one WRB with performance package. Bought the WRB limited with pp for $26k. Can't wait to wrap it around a pole or flip it by next week.

I drove it 200 miles already, but I won't bother to give any feedback or review my experience. Instead, I will just never go on forums again.
