Official: STI Releases SUBARU BRZ tS in Japan [w/ Gallery]

[Steve201brz]

Maximum 500 units (must be pre-ordered by March 9, 2014)
[Including maximum 250 units of GT PACKAGE]

I had originally envisioned this whole "STI" package being similar to the WRX...brz premium, brz limited, brz tS etc. Seems more like a collectors edition type of thing IMO. It's a nice package but the only real reason I would buy it is simply because its done by STI, kinda like bragging rights.

IMO, as long as YOU like it, then that's all that matters.

I was comparing the prices in Japan.

lol, yea but I doubt it will since we never get the good stuff. If it did it would just be too expensive to be a bargain by any stretch.

Ill be honest, after looking at those pics I splooshed all over the place, time to move to Japan

[DSOmegaX]

I'm not a big fan of the wing tbh. Still like the subtlety of the gurney more

[mush]

i bet the markup is gonna be pretty ridiculous on this car

From what we get stock is amazing.

no shit its not a drag car. im sure we all know that.

i never said it needed to handle better. thats all they did performance wise.

just saying i find it funny that it will be slower in a straight line for sure. it has 18's., (slower acceleration)

you can spend 40g's on a brz ts or spend 28g's on a stock brz. all your getting is an sti badge, a touch of handling and styling

just think about it. i could smoke that brz with just an intake. sad

Also, the tS will probably be faster in drag race because it comes with vastly superior tires (Michelin Pilot Super Sports).

bigger rims. slower acceleration. maybe your right about the tires but that shouldnt make a difference from a roll. if you were to do it from a rolling start as well as from a dig.

When exactly are you getting it?

[Sciby]

Dunno if it's been mentioned... but do those new STI side garnishes look like katana/sword blades to anyone else? Am I seeing what I want to see?

[Fett4Real]

Bigger wheels better tires, better seats, among other things, the accelration will be marginally slower. You act like no one runs 18s. Dont think the brakes will fit under most 17s.

Whatever price tag they have, itll be cheaper then the sum of the parts and if you purchase all the parts and put em on yourself you'd have them no warranty and have spent more money then what it would cost from subaru. The car may not be for YOU...but its still awesome.
