By itself, I don't think it looks horrible, but in combination with the white stitching, red interior lighting, and khaki exterior color, the RS 2.0 is a little too unique for my tastes.

I don't even notice the red anymore so I am fine with it. The tan would be a nice option if buying new though.

Agree on that stitching. Mind you in my case at least it wouldn't stay white long. At least not on any contact points.

Dual climate and push button start are the biggest differences really.



Note: I am surprised by the price and shocked. It is high. but the car is now 4 years older than when I bought it and better kitted so maybe it is worth the difference. No idea until it is driven and lived in


But compared to the new BRZ: not worth it IMO

The BRZ premium was always a better bang for your buck compared to the FRS. The only reason someone should buy an FRS over the BRZ is if they prefer the front bumper more, or want Hot Lava. There used to be the difference in suspension between the two, but after 2015 that's no longer a factor.

Well this was extremely disappointing to see on toyota.ca. I would have preferred to stay with Toyota cars but there has to be a incentive proposed by the dealer because the BRZ wins by default right now.

Unless you live in Regina, Sk. If so, you are willing to pay more to deal with Taylor's (Toyota) than Auto Gallery (Subaru)

Mean while when I saw the 86 in NYIAS "HOLY SHIT WHAT CHANGED!"

Anyone know what the difference is of the 6.1" and 7" display audio screens(other than size obv)? Brochure claims standard 7", website claims 6.1" standard. Typo or am i missing something?

Twin Circuit, not Twin Ring. Just in case someone decides to try finding it
