Better tail lights this is a concept not production so this already. Look toned down. Wonder what production will look like.

The tail lights are massively better, too bad they won't make it to the production model.

I personally don't like those headlights. I think they look worse than the ones on the FRS. And some of these computer images look aweful. Subaru should demand more from their computer graphic designer.

There have already been other reviews (of the non-STI version). C&D and MT have first drive reviews for the BRZ prototype. Here are the links:

C&D: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2070
MT: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2111

Edit: Thank you for fixing the post!

id rather have pics than renders... if you compare the FT pics with the BRZ renders, there seem to be two types of body tools. Look at the "hips".

i like those BRZ renders more... but i guess itīll wont lookk like this.

I think I might have to get the subaru over the toyota if the taillights end up looking like that. In reality though, it is almost definitely going to come down to price.

I like the taillights also but they look very similar to the ones on the Impreza concept and in the transition to the impreza they lost their appeal. But subaru can correct that mistake here

Pretty surprised at the tails actually, the new STi's have all clear tails. I guess they listened and saw a whollee bunch of people doing red-outs and figured it would please the masses to red them out

I want to say that that rear wing will never make it to production... but this is Subaru and they are known for putting impossible wings on in the name of performance.
not exactly what I hoped for but it does look interesting.

I guess I am still dissappointed about the hoodline change... stupid pedestrian crash tests.... put the hood back low and make it illegal for people to walk. XD
