Wait.... You tore out your granddaughter to save weight? How much could she possibly have weighed?! (/iknowexactlywhatyoumeantjustbeingatroll)

Too much lol. No she's like 7 so any older and she wouldn't have fit

My wife says it looks like a Hyundai Veloster.

Looks like 4x4 tires lol

Ironically she just did have an eye appointment on Saturday.

All Photographs are Copyrighted by Toyota.

What do ya know, those pictures in the magazine were spot on, same front bumper, headlights, taillights. Not too often that happens.

Good god that front end looks like straight up ass. Is this a joke?

the chassis reinforcements were an upgrade for the 2016 model, and it would be backwards if they didn't keep it around for the 2017 model. that is why most people assume that it will still apply vs. 13-15

They were very close yes but not spot on. Look at some of the angles and widths they are off a bit. They also didn't capture the droop in the nose.

That makes more sense.

There's definitely a price increase, but how much between the two twins, got a feeling it wont me the same amounts as when it was an FRS and BRZ now that it's 86 and BRZ

I'm reserving judgement on the new front bumper cover until I see one in person. The stiffer suspension fits in well with the extra grip I'll have with upgraded tires and wheels. Gear ratios better suited to the power output and a mild power/torque boost is icing on the cake. Love that they are badging it "86" under the Toyota brand, like it should have been from the start. I'll take mine in blue.
