It should have had the Five Axis as standard from the factory.

im actually glad it didnt come with a wing. that way we can put whatever wing/spoiler/lip on it as we want... which i think was a big factor in building this car.

Camber won't ruin your tires nearly as fast as having bad toe angle.You have have a good amount of camber,but as long as your toe angle is good,the tire will be ok.Obviously not quite as good as a standard alignment,but better than a car with 0 camber and negative toe angle.

I might be the only person that thinks this,but the BRZ spoiler is one of the worst stock spoilers that I've ever seen.It's like the retarded,redheaded stepchild of the old Pontiac Grand Am spoiler.I'm not a fan of the FR-S spoiler either,I have mine still sitting at the dealer,but it's leaps and bounds better than the BRZ's spoiler.
(for clearity,I don't think you were saying that the FR-S should come with the BRZ spoiler)

On topic,the one and only thing I wish this car came stock with are wider wheels. These wheels should be no narrower than 225.Not a big fan on the overall design of the wheels either,but I could overlook that if they were actually wider.
