STI E-RA Concept looks like electrified/electric version of BRZ. Makes sense.

I have noticed STI, at least here in the US, has become more of a badge thing. Though I loved the S209. I feel a lot of it is down to American consumers are cheap fucks and won't buy anything unless it adds an enormous amount of horsepower. Not steering response, or more aggressive gearing, or better handling. Those little additions made the S209 desirable to me. But I know I read too many comments talking about how some other STI owner could 'build' their own S209 and make it 'better' and I just think that sums up how a US consumer is.

The same people claiming they can build a better STI for the same money are the same people blowing up their cars within 2yrs of ownership while rolling on XXR wheels, BC coilovers, and stock arms with no alignment paired on $70 federal 595 tires talking about ZOMFGWTFBROSOMUCHGRIPTHECARHANDLESONRAILS lol

Whereas you go to japan and many of the Toyota dealers have GR Garages where they sell a bunch of TRD/GR "aftermarket" parts, and also third party stuff from like HKS and other tuners. Plus they do the installs if you want. It encourages customers to get into that kind of stuff. But here for the longest time the most you could buy at a Toyota dealer were seat/steering wheel covers and other random crap.

The aftermarket segment used to be so much bigger and in more demand. But through the recession and changes within the industry on a global level, the demands of the market have changed dramatically. I got to see it all first hand given the type of work my Dad did working with Eibach, then Magnaflow, all while working with Universal Studios for F&F movies and doing the whole NIRA, HIN, and NOPI thing.
