That's how you know I'm new here. That's the first BRZ I've seen without a touchscreen.

That one you posted


There is this one from the 13s



There is what I have in my 14 (Canadian has a different screen set up? The unit looks the same but I do not have a selection screen like that)



Then there is the Bespoke




Then the 16 FRS are all different again.



And...of course theBRZs are different



There of course are probably several I missed from other markets.

LOL! I deleted my post thinking it was kinda rude to old Toyota owners.

In Japan the twins don't come with a headunit, just a blank delete plate (maybe OP can look into this as a cheap upgrade). The headunit is an added option.

All those head units, and it doesn't seem like they found one that didn't suck.

(The '13 BRZ Pioneer unit is laggy, has spotty touch recognition, not enough physical buttons, questionable navigation, etc. etc.)

That's odd (I have this 2014 unit in my 2013, replaced the standard radio with it). If you push the "Audio" button with the unit powered off, what do you get?

If you don not blind oncoming traffic with something in the boot and the lights on their highest setting the baseline level of the lights are set too high.
