Also, never realized just how different the two headlights are. The BRZ one is nicer looking (IMO) and is also much smaller. EDIT: Wait -- they are the same size? That's just an optical illusion? |

I felt this way until Hanzo confirmed a couple posts back that the BRZ bumper extends over the sharp end of its own headlights, making it look smaller than the FR-S =P

I dunno, the BRZ kinda looks like an MMA fighter or boxer (no pun intended) showing his mouth guard. Not really smiling but with the furrowed brow look of the headlights it looks like it is ready to kick someone's ass.

I think they both look fantastic! I prefer the FR-S/86 fender badges to the "generic" BRZ fender garnishes, and I'm definitely glad I'm getting the BRZ in the darker Galaxy Blue to hide the "mustache" a little bit better. I like the look of the FR-S front end but I also really like the BRZ's integrated chin spoiler. Comparing the interiors though, I'd have to get an FR-S in red... the fact that they only come with red-accented seats means I wouldn't want to get it in orange, silver/gray, or blue - red, white, or black would work. They really ought to have an option for an all-black interior.

The FR-S will have more options in the near future, I talked to one of the Scion Corp Reps. They just didn't make the launch, but LED DRLs etc will be available.
A BRZ to FR-S headlight swap isn't going to be possible unless you get the bumper as well, they are different edges etc. I agree, even though I already had decided, that the FR-S front looks so much better. Interior quality, for some parts, might go to the BRZ though.

I've gotten pretty good at centering it in a parking spot leaving room fore and aft. The wheel arches really help with that. |

UUHHH all this pics (are sweet by the way) are making it hard as hellto decide on weather to get the FR-S or the BRZ
I was going for the BRZ at first but I love that sharp look of the FR-S front end more then the buldge of the BRZ but Im a subaru guy and I want HID light with out question. Still need to save up some more cash so if Scion add HID to the option list by then that will sell me but if not its the BRZ....or the FR-S..... aaaahhhhhh!!! I just want mine to look like this!
