Thoughts on this?

 

I like how the 5 Axis kit looks. It looks better in some colors than others, though.

Our local dealership had a couple 5-Axis equipped FR-S's in stock. They had the ground effects kit, the wheels, Katskin leather seat covers, the wheels, and Tein H-tech springs. The dealer's asking price was $38,000 MSRP. .. It you wanted the car in automatic, they wanted close to $40,000.

 

good lord $38,000! I would love to see the same kit and wheels on hot lava. I just love that color on the frs. I like the kit but, only some of the 5axis wheels compliment it.

Also, agree with your statement that the kit looks better on certain colors.

I like the frs/brz and will keep a close eye on the future of the car. I was thinking of picking up a CR possibly next year or two(not sure love my current S) but, wonder the specs of the future frs/brz.

 

$38 - 40K is a ridiculous mark up for that vehicle... the kit isn't worth that much by a long shot. Anyone in their right mind would be looking at a lot of other vehicles for that price before spending that much on an FR-S.

As far as the kit itself goes, I actually like it a lot and love the way it makes the FR-S look even more aggressive than it already does. If I ever get an FR-S one day I would look into getting that kit for it.

 

Ricers gonna rice.

 

Those wheels look really heavy. Personally the only thing I think this car needs suspension wise is a different set of tires.

 

Looks pretty good on darker colors but light silver and white look pretty bad. The kit makes the car look heavy and clunky on the lower edges - really doesn't work at all. Black and dark silver look best, to me.

 

I think the kit is a bit over done. I do like the 5AD rear lip spoiler.
