Release Series 2.0 details leaked?

[Dake]

Wait, same size as stock wheels? That hilarious that the TC gets 18" and the FR-S still doesn't (oh and still no standard fog lights). Throw in that those rims are kind of ugly and will be even more susceptible to curb rash...

It looks like the leather in the seats isn't fitted very well.
It could wrinkle and crack with use. IMHO.
Might be fixed in the production series, though.

Anyone know when it will hit dealerships or are they slowly showing up at the lots already? Definitely worth checking out in person.

I like those wheels, just wish they were 18's.

I like the way it looks but would it kill Toyota/Subaru to add fog lights to a 1000 vehicles?

Until they figure out how to make fog lights that actually work, it doesn't really matter. The OEM fog lights on the EU spec GT86 are completely and utterly worthless.

Hmm wasn't aware thanks

I know right, the US RS 1.0 are already pre-wired, maybe 100 bucks more and your done.

If you expect them to work as driving lights, they are pretty useless. They have functioned fine for me as fog lights. (I only turn them on when there is fog. Most people leave fog lights on all the time around here.)

Please don't take me for a fool.

I expect fog light to work as fog lights. Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Volvo and others all have very good fog lights these days.

The ones on my GT86 does nothing at all in fog, heavy rain or snow. They could just as well be marker lights.

I leave mine one all the time just because I find
1. it looks nicer (got some yellow fogs)
2. There are more lights for idiots to see me coming in the dark so that they don't come out right in front of me because they can't see headlights... among other things

It's gotta be that Norwegian night light that is somehow different

Anyways I'll try to hunt some fog see how mine work (I'll also see if mine are oem or aftermarket as they were there when I bought the car)

1) you'd be surprised how many people expect them to work as driving lights.
2) they very well might be different. I have the port/dealer installed US version and lighting is one of those things that varies from country to country. When mine turn on, they project a brighter, light that is low and focused wide and in front of the car rather than focused far out and forward only. This is also why I turn them off when there is no fog. The intense light from the fog lights makes my eyes adjust to the fog light output rather than my headlight output and I find myself focusing more on the area lit by the fog light than what I should be watching (the are lit by the headlights).
