Sounds like the kicker sub for the 1st Gen:

I wouldn't plan on this being available for BRZ, at least for the first model year. How easily one could connect the Toyota version will remain to be seen.

Good questions, no idea. I follow a lot of Japanese and hadn't seen orders being delivered to customers yet but maybe I was just missing them. This is the first I've seen of someone actually getting theirs.

Another, kinda boring photos. Night time shot of one in the dark, and bonus digital dash: https://twitter.com/takano_mario/sta...994003968?s=21

Doesn't seem too drifty on the AutoX circuit but I guess the driver wasn't aiming to.







Yet it looks more fun at moderate speeds in a circuit. Again maybe it's driver dependent.

At least on the AutoX it's clearly not understeering even in the wet which is great to see.

Nice couple of handbrake turns there near the end.

What is the obsession with figure skating? It's not the quick way around a circuit.
