Hey @magnesio! Are you planning on keeping your GR86 stock or are you going to add some mods?Base.
Did you consider Premium at any point, maybe after seeing the current 86/BRZ in person?Base.

Hello R-Ozzy and apex, thanks for the welcome!Did you consider Premium at any point, maybe after seeing the current 86/BRZ in person?
Just curious because so few people are going with Base.
BTW, welcome to the forum!
Well on the BRZ the top spec manual is 20lb (9kg) heavier than the bottom spec manual. 2835 vs 2815lb.I wonder how much more the more the premium version weighs. Also are the premium 18 inch wheels wider than the base 17" wheels?
It will be interesting to see if the Premium gets the 18 inch BBS forged alloys from the GR Yaris , visually they look the same, and are very light 8.3kg, but incredibly expensive around £1500 each from Toyota. Similar weight forged alloys can be sourced for around £1000 for a set of 4Well on the BRZ the top spec manual is 20lb (9kg) heavier than the bottom spec manual. 2835 vs 2815lb.
Most of that will be the 18inch rims, as the rest of the car changes weigh about the same.
The GR Yaris actually comes in two types of 18x8" +45 5x114.3, cast Enkies and forged BBS. The Enkies are 10.3kg, and as you said the BBS rims are 8.3kg.It will be interesting to see if the Premium gets the 18 inch BBS forged alloys from the GR Yaris , visually they look the same, and are very light 8.3kg, but incredibly expensive around £1500 each from Toyota.

The Yaris is 5x114.3. This car has been confirmed as being typical Subie 5x100.
