I suspect a lot of base owners of both BRZ or GR86 will want to switch out the Primacy tires along with the stock wheels or heck the previous Gen cars that still have stock wheels. I suspect the 18s are more valuable as some want to avoid the Primacy tires. I'm actually contemplating this myself, I quite like the base GR wheel look as a bonus and like the idea of the 17 inch tires being cheaper long term.

The nice thing about the spoiler aspect is it can be removed for one that doesn't have it. No longer is this a hole drilling affair which is fantastic. Perhaps you can convince a American base GR86 Neptune owner. Or if its held onto the spoiler by double sided tape...you might be able to remove it without any visual notice, but this massively depends on how its installed.

^ the spoiler is taped and also bolted on. Luckily the section of the trunk that it is bolted to is a separate piece that can be detached. So you would just unbolt the trunk lid rear section and swap that whole piece over with the spoiler still attached.

I gotta say that pictures do not do the color justice. It's just. So. Blue.

I love it.

Man I would love to see the new Neptune GR86 parked next to a Riviera Blue 911, preferably of the 993 generation.

A buddy of mine owns this 718 Cayman GTS. We plan to let them meet soon.

Is that Miami Blue? I would love to see that next to Neptune blue. Interestingly, Porsche also has a Neptune blue, but it looks a little darker than Toyota's.

If you wouldn't mind and know how McMCOO, see if you can get the photos to match the color in real life. I'm seeing so many different neptune blue photos and they all look different!

McMCOO · 01-20-2022, 06:03 PM

I don't know when we'll be getting together but I will post it when I can. Meanwhile here's a picture outside Tillamook Oregon.

McMCOO · 01-20-2022, 06:05 PM

Neptune car and yellow dog.
