BRZ is several grands cheaper. I did a search here and it says GR has firmer ride.

My question is, are the any build differences between the two?

The suspension maybe softer on BRZ, but any other real differences? Can someone explain the price difference?

The differences are slight but if anything, the BRZ is the better built car. It has aluminum front knuckles, a hollow front sway bar, and better rear sway bar mountings. Inside it features more chrome accents and red stitching.

The price difference boils down to the majority of people preferring the Toyota front bumper. Absolutely go for the BRZ if you don't care. Its dealerships are also more experienced with boxer-engined cars, you can order one instead of playing the allocation lottery, insurance is cheaper, and, if you're financing, the APR is lower.

Aren’t the base wheels different styles, not just colors?

It's the same design with different finishes. 👍

Are you sure? I thought the GR wheels were a different style where the BRZ base wheels look identical to the Limited wheels but an inch smaller and a lighter gray.

Yes. Only the finish changes.
