Thanks, takes it off my list. For some reason I can't stomach blurples.

I shouldn’t be thinking about it but I am. I would go GR86 for a few reasons, but the biggest would be Neptune… so hot.

I don't know, I might have to change my order from white to silver. This just looks sooooo good. I love how the silver reflects light compared to the white. Plus I had white last time...such a hard decision!

The STI pieces looks good. I hope aftermarket brings things that are in this level also.

I agree, the car really starts to look a good bit better with the STI pieces. I am still not a major fan of the design of this new gen, but have been warming up, especially with looks like these. I do love a clean design, so I prefer very subtle details as such.

I was a little hesitant on design at first but was also warming up to it. When I saw it in person, I completely fell in love with it. Super excited for mine to come now. Just torn on adding the STI lip kit because it will get proper aero at some point.

I honestly think the BRZ with the STi bits is genuinely a better looking car compared to the 86. The front is so much more interesting as a design. And it doesn't make the car look like one big glob up front—which is what the 86 is to me. I'm not saying the 86 isn't good looking. I just don't think the front feels cohesive with the design language of the rest of the car. But these things are so subjective.

I was really surprised to see the 86 be the one everyone flocked towards.

Has anyone seen any videos of the WR Blue with the STi options? Can't seem to find any.

I did not find, and would like to find also as this the color I did order and i am planning on installing the STI stuff (less the difuser, that I will wait until aftmkt launches something that seals better the bottom)

I don't care for the rounded nose just below the emblem of the BRZ, with the license plate mounted on the rounded part.

The 86 the nose doesn't wrap down and the license plate is mounted below it.

I also prefer the 86 headlights.

Agreed on the license plate issue. I've seen this photo before and I don't think it does either any favors—especially the BRZ.

What are the differences between headlights? Looks like the 86 has some black in them or something?
