+1 I want the seats and the fog lamps, but I don't want to stick that little spoiler on the back of it...

Yeah I want the seats and HIDs but don't want seat heaters, nav, spoiler, or auto climate control. I hate how they bunch everything together... 27k is too much I think. The premium BRZ seems like a good compromise I guess, hopefully they will at least make HIDs an option for a few hundred and maybe I can convince the dealer to buy back the nav... I really would like that push to start though...

I think me and you want the exact options on this car lol. They can keep the fogs too from what I've seen it looks better without them.

Maybe. But I want to see a night picture of the BRZ with the fogs before deciding.

Fogs are an Awesome "performance" add-on, if they're good fogs..lol..i get off on lighting performance so fogs are a YES (not for the look though).

As far as WANTING the OEM fogs, i can tell you, if they're the same reflector style fogs from the 08+ sti's and wrx's...they are a complete waste of time. They almost look like them, similar size too, but i haven't seen close-ups..and when it comes to the production version, they could be completely different.

hopefully it's a toyota fog lamp unit

You guys make HIDs sound super expensive. Lol

Yes,Crappy re-based HID kits can be had for $40.

But for High quality phillips/osram bulbs ($100+ a pair), High quality Panasonic/ Denso/ Bosch Ballasts ($200) and Proper High Quality HID projectors ($150-$400).

The prices i listed are "aftermarket-OEM parts"....the dealer definitely will gouge when hid components fail. The sum of it's parts..Hid isn't Cheap...Super expensive?..not nowadays..BUT, someone who thinks spending $50 for a bad hid kit in a bad headlight is a good idea, will probably think $500+ is expensive

Fog lights are useless in my opinion. I rather have brake ducts.

xantonin · 12-03-2011, 02:18 AM

Why are people comparing the WRX to this car?

Sure, pricing may be the same, but the WRX is all wheel drive, and it's based on a family model sedan, which means it's more roomy and appealing to an entirely different audience.

Have we been?...i know *I* mentioned a wrx, but that was just to compare US to Canadian prices and get an ballpark canadian figure for the BRZ, and possibly logically figure out what are options and what's standard for canada. Did someone else say something?

Actually I may have just jumped in at the wrong time...

Carry on.
