probably just a "unique" paint job and some stitching on a few models. like scion did with the 10 series.

"The Current Plans for Special Edition Releases


As of this article's writing, vehicle experts suspect that the following models will most certainly come out in 2018 special editions: the Outback wagon, the Forester SUV and the Crosstrek crossover. It's also possible that Subaru could be releasing 2018 WRX and WRX STI performance sedans in the special edition form."


Would be surprised if there isn't some special edition BRZ though. I suspect however that what it is depends on how much of one colour of paint they found laying around.

Wait a minute. Fuji Heavy Industries put the first Subaru on the market in 1954. I think they missed their own party.

It wouldn't surprise me if there were no special edition of the BRZ. This seems to be a thing for the "real" Subarus. Subaru people seem to consider the BRZ as a foster child they're just taking care of until it's old enough to push out of the nest.

This is what makes me sad sometimes. They were pioneers 5 years ago and now it looks they are drained of ideas and they are going from the one limited edition to the other.

So a BRZ with a wing, a body kit and the PP. Suppose it qualified as a "Sti".

I bet it will have some more Sti logos inside.

I hate that stupid wing. I would have to swap trunks for something less tacky.
