Any news of Performance Pack for 2018? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Has there been any mention or the ability to purchase a 2018 Performance Pack?

I wanted to ensure they would be available for MY18 or if I need to start looking Nationally to pick up a 2017.

Thanks for any information.

Yes, the MY18 cars will be available with the Performance Package.

Thanks for the reply, and not to sound ungrateful, but could you link me to proof of that?

Intuitively, I might agree, but I have seen the preference of Mfgs lately to do one-off aesthetic cars lately.

Thanks for any linked information or direct build sheets showing as such.

You don't sound ungrateful

I work for SOA, so unfortunately you'll have to take my word on it. But, two weeks ago I sat in an '18 PP pre-pro model at the Port of Baltimore, and I have pictures of it on my phone, last 8 start with a J hanging in the window and all! So, no offense taken if you need more proof.

Optional Performance Package
Subaru continues to offer an optional Performance Package for the 2018 BRZ Limited with the 6-speed manual transmission. This comprehensive chassis upgrade features SACHS® Performance dampers to enhance handling and steering stability and wider alloy wheels (17-in x 7.5-in aluminum versus the standard 17-in x 7.0-in). The high-performance braking system uses Brembo® rotors, 4-piston front calipers and 2-piston calipers to enhance stopping power, fade resistance, and pedal feel.

Thank you very much. I appreciate it! (to both of you, of course).

Quite welcome. I'm just waiting for our parts catalog to get a full update so I can see if the wiring harness is the same to the new headunit. Gen 3 system is soooo much nicer.
