Don't even get me started about not having oem fogs, center armrest, factory alarm, or some decent stereo options more than half a year after launch.

F U Toyota...
on the bright side, looks like the TRD leather keyfob cover costs a lot less than the STI leather keyfob cover.

so there's that

Forget your US fog lights, or interior plastics, there is one crucial part that I find is missing on this list for both JP and US markets:

TRD Oil Cooler

That is all.

They will fit.

Just order the passenger for the driver seat. They pretty much get rid of all the features on the stock seats anyway (airbags, lowering/raising adjustment).

As for TRD USA the drop in filter is the same. The exhaust is not.

I just now realized how direct of an influence a certain car had on the TRD strut tower bar.

Hardly a 'direct influence', carbon fibre strut tower bars are manufactured for a lot of cars apart from the LFA.

The only thing I'd be interested in out of that is the steering rack bushings. Those might actually give the steering wheel the much needed feedback that's lacking. Of course, having your average mechanic install them is just a recipe for disaster...

I nearly shit myself from laughing. Glad I'm not the only one who thought this was ridiculous. Anyway, this stuff is grossly overpriced. Frankly, there are lots of aftermarket products that are of equal or near equal quality that are significantly cheaper. A lot of the stuff in there won't even affect warranty, so can't bring up that argument...

Seeing these prices is making me really nervous about how much a TRD supercharger will be. All comments/arguments about the power it will make aside, we can be pretty much certain that it'll be ridiculously expensive. Then again, I suppose that was already a forgone conclusion

Oh well, here's hoping some of the aftermarket kits get CARB approval...

Correct, in Japan, fog lights are OEM. I hope, fog lights do come soon in USA
Im gonna be honest..

If USDM come with an option of HID's, Foglights and the dual climate control for the FRS, I'd jump on the FRS. Not because I hate the BRZ's look - because y'all know I love it - but because I have 3 Toyota/Scion dealerships on my way to the nearest Subaru dealer.....

Yeah, I smell (expensive) rice.

Would be interesting if the bushings/mounts came available here.
