The leather seats would be a deal breaker for me. I hate leather seats. I would seem if I could get these parts at a discount as part of a purchase package incentive.
-Push Button Start
-Frameless rearview mirror
-Center Armrest (if I like it better than aftermarket ones)
-HID headlights
-Heated exterior mirros

I have the capability as it came with the new 2014 head unit. But it's extra option of $$hundreds extra to activate/upgrade to bespoke as I understand it. Seems pricey to me.

Glowing badges are hideous and laughable. Paint job is bland unless in sun and just looks silver. Series 10 was a joke except for the headlights.

I would be crying if I bought a series 10 right now.... You get to choose any color plus practically everything else, but the tacky glowing emblems.

Exciting news! This stuff helps me justify buying one of these. However, I'm still going to wait to see about power upgrades for MY 2015.

Things I want:

• BeSpoke Premium Audio featuring aha (includes navigation)
• Leather Seats (I don't need them heated though)
• Anti-Theft Security System
• Center Armrest (As long as it looks and feels good)
• Carpeted Cargo Mat (I guess?)
• HID Auto Headlamps with LED Daytime Running Lights (YES!!!)
• Heated Color-Keyed Power Exterior Mirrors
• Frameless Rear-View Mirror (I'm going to replace this anyway with a HomeLink mirror so oh well)

Things I don't want:

• Dual Zone Auto Climate Control (They tend to do things you don't want to do which is annoying... manual controls are simpler)
• Smart Key Push Button Start (Sometimes they don't work properly... I'd rather just put in a reliable key)
• Color-Keyed Rear Spoiler (BOO!!! This spoils it for me. I hate rear spoilers on this car - sorry rear spoiler guys)

Now I wonder if the seats will be all leather or the standard Alcantara/leather mix. Either way, I'd likely rather have them than the current cloth seats. I also wonder about the fog lights. I hope they can offer them on the light stock/switch now instead of the button on the side.

Well I have a year and a half left on my lease. Maybe the next time around..........................I would be so happy with leather seats.

They already did with the Aha radio.


It would be awesome if we could pick options a la carte, but I doubt they'll let us.

Hideous, laughable and crying because you can get another color? Talk about trying to cr@p on somebody's parade. Funny how fan boys with the same car (BRZ & FRS) will try to one up each other and the same thing within the same brand (FRS/Series 10/soon to be monogram?). What next haters knocking the monogram's leather saying they suck because it cracks and it's slippery on corners. Give me a break. if you like it buy, if you don't then that's good too.

Having this announced within several months of the Series 10 is what's frustrating people, I'm sure. Obviously they knew they had SOMETHING in the works, but have been wanting to milk this product for all it's worth. It's just a shame because some people were waiting, and even I believed the 10 Series was going to be the best option available ever. Everyone was duped.

Think of this possible scenario: Someone was waiting for the 10 Series, buying in no rush, picked it up, but now there's this. I wonder what @supra2nv has to say about this since he didn't seem to be in any particular rush to buy his FR-S that's now a GT-86 TRD.
