Here’s mine with the STI parts installed, thing of note was that the rear diffuser was silver (in Japan it’s black). Looks great though!

I might, but that fender vent accessory has my heart for the time being! It’s very nice in person.

If so, would love to hear some comparisons between the two cars. The silver looks great!

Yes, that's me.

I have only driven the car twice (about 50 total miles) since purchasing it, so I will need to drive it a little more before doing a good comparison. Plus, I am planning on keeping the rpm's at 4000 or below during break-in (as per the Owner's Manual).

I'll mention a few things of comparison that are not related to performance:

-I have a 2017 Focus ST2, which gives you Recaro seats and a pretty nice 450 watt Sony stereo system. The seating in my Limited BRZ is pretty comparable to the Recaro seats, but I believe the BRZ seats look nicer with the leather and Ultrasuede. The BRZ sound system is horrible in comparison to the Focus ST2 sound system.

-The shift feel is comparable between the two cars, and I have the stock shifter in both cars. I do have a really nice heavy WC Lathewerks shift knob in my Focus and plan on getting one for the BRZ.

-Tires: With 215/40-18 tires on the stock wheels on the BRZ, they seem really narrow and one could easily curb a wheel due to no tire protection. The car really needs 225/40-18's on the stock wheels. I plan on buying a nice set of OZ or Enkei wheels for the BRZ with larger tires (225's or 235's).

I will follow up once I have more seat time in the BRZ.

Did your car come with all the parts? I'm still waiting and have had my car for almost a month.

Only thing it came with was the Vortex generator, everything else was installed by the dealer’s service department (apparently it was SUPER easy to do) and it ran ~ $2900 after tax + labor.

Man, the looks of the new gen are really growing on me like crazy.
