I have never once got stuck in snow where I could not get out (as long as the road was opened) but have buried a 8 wheeled LAV with special "sand tires" right up to the hull on a beach. Then immediately buried the recovery vehicle that we went and got to pull it out. Since neither of the vehicles was supposed to be on the beach in the first place I peeled potatoes for a month and prefer snow over sand to this very day.

Probably any Toyota dealer in about 6 months. If we get that wing here that is.

I remember a couple days after release series 1.0 came out I tried to buy the wing from my local dealer and they wouldn't sell me the wing without a valid VIN number. Better not be the case this time around.

I'm already thinking how I could put inserts under the mount points of the new wing and make it slightly taller. Anyone with a 3D printer, get on that.

That was because it was a special edition but it would appear that the wing shown is just the basic stock one. Like I said though we may or may not get it here anyway. The JDM gets many things we do not already and I doubt that will change much. At very least you should be able to get a lookalike knock off in the near future.

The 2017 BRZ is getting that wing here so even if Toyota doesn't carry it you could probably just go to a subie dealer

Watch the trades section, I'm sure a lot of people would be happy to get rid of it.

We enthusiast are like the worst.

Yet a bunch of people will still buy it. The manufacturer wins!

I got stuck this weekend in the sand on the beach. I didn't bury it, took a few small pushes and I let traction control do its thing.

Personally I like the external changes. I don't have a plan to change my car, but it is a good thing to see newer and better models and the community to grow

I enjoyed the force awakens, up until Dumbo took off his helmet and outright killed his character on a fundamental level.
