haven't seen anything, but Subaru usually doesn't release anything early. September or October will probably be the earliest.

Confirmation from my subaru rep:

"BRZ Ts is back for 2020, Ceramic White with Bronze wheels. Limited to only 300"

Nice!!!! No carbon roof, no STI front lip, no STI wing...my 2018 tS still somewhat special!

This is not really a tS model. Not much relation with the original JDM tS models. They should better name it STI sport or something similar.

For the American market, I would keep the STI name out. People here already put unrealistic expectations for that acronym as it is. You put "STI Sport" for the BRZ and people will expect the same 2.5 or 2.0L turbocharged motor from the WRX or STI. I mean, they already do as it is. But I digress.

2020 marks the return of the BRZ tS (tuned by STI) with a limited run of 300 units and priced at $31,495. The tS suspension upgrades include STI-tuned front and rear SACHS dampers and coil springs as well as an STI flexible V-brace in the engine compartment. Draw stiffeners are added to the chassis and sub-frame to improve steering response. The brake system is also upgraded to Brembo four-piston calipers and rotors on the front and dual-piston calipers and rotors on the rear.

The 2020 BRZ tS comes exclusively in a new Ceramic White exterior color and is paired with 18-inch wheels in matte-bronze finish wrapped in 215/40R18 Michelin Pilot Sport tires. The BRZ tS offers customers a more understated appearance than before, featuring a low-profile rear spoiler.

The BRZ tS is adorned with the exclusive Cherry Blossom Red accent around the front grille and unique rear bumper cover. The official BRZ tS badge in chrome and red is displayed on the front grille and rear decklid. The exterior foldable mirrors, roof-mounted shark fin antenna and BRZ badging all have a black finish. The fog lights have been removed and replaced with black fog light insert covers.

The cabin features black leather and Alcantara® upholstery with contrasting red stitching and accents, including on the steering wheel, door and dash panels, knee pads, shifter and emergency brake boots and visor over the gauge cluster. The front seats have red leather bolsters and the seatbacks are embroidered with the tS logo. The center console has been updated to a cast black finish. The BRZ tS also comes standard with red front seat belts and a frameless interior rearview mirror.

Two trims: Limited and tS.

Looks like they're taking away the Premium trim.

Which would be fine if there was a big enough difference between the two. And 300 is nothing either. Wonder how and if the used prices for the 2018 tS would change...

Probably not by much. For the record, my tS with 1300 miles is being sold at my dealership for $30,000. MSRP was $34,962

Love the white/bronze combo.

Lol. Yes, I forgot that.

Hmm, definitely an interesting year for these three cars. Effectively one available trim for the BRZ is the real... interesting part. MY2020 is hopefully the calm before the storm.

That Ceramic White color looks good in that "photo," though. I'd love to check it out if I get a chance.

Being sold at $30k or listed at $30k?
