I vote BRZ.

Sadly, that's a Veilside kit and that Celica is the shame of 6gc's everywhere.

You know, your right...it does look like a mini LFA...but better....

FRS/FT86...it just looks better from the front. But the BRZ is good looking too...just not as aggressive. Both are sexy as hell.

Hmm I do see a little bit of FRS/FT86/BRZ up in this fine biotch!

Horrid. Along with all of the replica kits that came after it.

lol, yeah, about ~$352,000 Better! (Price of LFA: $375,000USD, FR-S ~ $23,000USD)

Now that I see the LFA and FT 86 in the same post I kinda like the sharper nose on the 86. The roundish nose on the LFA makes it kinda dopy.

I just hope that they keep them red on the BRZ instead of the clear tails.

the shape of the rear lights might be different if they have completely different bumper design. the top lines will be identical as they are unlikely to change sheet metal but the bottom lines can be changed according to the bumper design.

all thanks to WingsofWar we can kind of compare the brz to the frs.

Based on WingsofWar's most recent photoshop of the brz, i'm sold on the brz

IMO both Toyota and Subaru did a very good job. I like the FR-S because I love the LF-A, and not being able to afford as most of us, like the idea of Baby-LFA, The FR-S to feel the spirit of the bigger brother. But I still voted for BRZ.
What is funny is that some say the FR-S is more sleek and the BRZ more agressive, and the the BRZ is more agressive and the FR-S more sleek. This means they both are and sleek and agressive, only our subjective eye makes us prefere one or another.

I voted for the FT-86 simply for the aggressiveness. BRZ looks a bit toned down.

Do you think they will change the dark plastic piece on the BRZ front?, as that could impact the overall look to the front end.
