It's been photographed without it as well. Most of the "premium" seems to be the Navi, which is a poor decision IMO.

Either way, we will not know for sure until the specs are released.. which is assumed to be NAIAS.. I wouldn't be upset if I saw them a lot earlier than that though lol

In the BRZ? I've only seen a variation of radios and seats in any pics of the BRZ.

Yeah, I know that the climate controls arent simple dealer swapped options. Idk I just hope that there is some way to change it. I love the looks of the scion version, like the front end. I want the scion, with the different climate controls, HID's, and a push start. Idc about the HU cuz I can change that. lol

Check the BRZ sub forum. It's been discussed there.

Something I don't know if it's been brought up yet or not. Do you think the interior accent color will be an option? I know the Greddy car has blue stitching and inserts, so do you think we will be able to get that on a non special edition?

I really want an ultramarine exterior with blue stitching and inserts.

History has shown color accents are only available in the Release Series; I don't see that changing.

Mystery of the "gray tach" solved!

it does look a little gray:


but it really isnt:
[u2b]i0-SvjnsWSo[/u2b]

maybe the gauge cluster backlight was maxed out making it look gray?

It'll probably look gray in moderate light and then just switch to ugly washed out dark gray at night.. like all white gauges But you did provide proof that it goes from white to silver to dark silver

<< really doesn't like white gauges, for the very reason that they look washed out at night.

So will most of you guys be looking to modify it right away or is the aftermarket gonna be lifeless like it is with the Genesis?

It seems like it will be fun for a short while, then we'll be begging for more. I don't think keeping it NA is enough. Turbocharging it with proper engine management will be a pretty penny though!

NA would be enough for me, I have driven nothing but NA cars for the last 7 years except for Toyota Hilux diesel turbo.

I love the sound of a high pressure turbo spooling up and getting the feeling like you're going to take off..lol

My last 2 cars have been highly tuned turbo AWDs. It's sorta cool to be faster that just about anyone on the road and have grip in every situation, but i want a real rwd sports car again. I'm fine with having less power, another 20 or 30hp would be nice..but i'm not gonna fuss about it.

What are you guys complaining bout?

They made it that way, so when you make this car track for drift car, you don't have to cut it.
