FR-S? BRZ? Premium? Limited? 10 Series? My brain hurts!

There were a few threads lately where people were trying to decide between these almost identical cars with trim differences. Here is a handy spreadsheet that might help make the decision easier. It's editable in the browser so that mistakes can be corrected, and if someone feels they can improve on it be my guest.

**DISCLAIMER**

Please don't clog this thread up with opinions and fanboy fights, let's keep this one focused on specific factual differences and answers to further clarification questions people may have specifically about differences in the trims. Let's stop thinking of these as "three" separate cars and instead think of it as one car with four+ trim levels (who wants to add the GT86 info?). So post your questions, observations, pictorial differences, etc.

Yay our first success! Yes it's my understanding that the BRZ has a 10" subwoofer option from the dealer (maybe not all dealers). See pic from the US website:

Someone pointed out the HIDs earlier, thought I fixed that. As for the seats the website says 65/35 but if that's wrong then I'll fix it.

BRZ Limites is a really good value. Navi, leather is standard.

If you are going to track the car completely then frs or brz premium....whichever is cheaper is best.

Buy what ya want and put your own stuff in and make it your own. Only time I'd care what it came with stock is if I was leasing it. If you're buying it then buy based one what "you" know it could be to "your" taste. My nickels worth....

X=standard equipment
O=optional equipment

That nomenclature may not be intuitive to everyone.

This is really good work. :happy0180: I made two changes:

Scion 10 Series: Nav is optional with the beespoke addin unit to the stock touchscreen unit

BRZ Premium: All BRZ's come with heated mirrors (as per my local Subaru's parts department)

The unit in the BRZ is a Fujitsu Ten unit. Hope you don't mind, I updated it in the spreadsheet.

The BRZ has a solid rear seat, not split. I deal with it every time I put a set of golf clubs in the back haha.
