Best place to see this is in the last picture.

First of all, thanks for the quick review.
DGM does look like sex! Still trying to decide between DGM and silver, will probably have to see them in person to finally decide. I'm glad that you liked the audio system, it was one of my worries as well. Just wondering, how was the rear seats? Is it comparable to an RX8's? I can sit in the rear seats of an RX8 alright (I'm quite small, 5"4'), so I was hoping it would be about the same size. It's just nice to know that I can bring my friends along when I want to (they're about the same size as me as well). |

If the DGM is the same color as the Scion Asphalt and it probably is. I'm real happy. That is the color I chose for my FR-S and I was having my doubts. I wasn't sure about the metallic aspect. I didn't want the color to look like flat dark grey. I wanted sparkly metallic grey. The Scion/ Subaru website pictures make it look like the flat grey and I've only seen 2 other pics of an Asphalt 86 from Japan. I like all the other colors but after seeing your pics, there is no doubt that I chose the right color for me. Thanks for the pics. Last edited by Grateful Dave; 05-06-2012 at 06:59 PM. |

^^^Sushi, the car I saw was a silver one. To be honest, currently having a silver car, I kind of liked it. I wish I would have seen it outside to really compare how it looks with the sun shining on it against my ASM RSX though.
In regards to the back seat, I'd have to say the RX-8 is a little roomier imo. It doesn't look fun for anyone riding back there. |

The rear seats never concerned me much since I will only use them for small bags, laptop, etc ...
I was cool as long as I could seat my wife comfortably in the passenger's seat and maybe put my kid sister in the back if we take her somewhere. I just got my wife a CX-5 AWD that we'll use if we have to get anywhere with large bags or bring anyone else. It's got the tech package so I won't be missing the navi. Frankly it gets better mileage too, lol... Back on track though ... I LOVE that roof! I also really like how low that thing is stock. /sigh ... It's going to be so fun to dive! .... when it arrives ...

So in other words... I'll mirror what others have said. It's doable to have people in the back seat, but I don't think anyone will be that comfortable doing it.

CLTBRZ & ucemecheng, thanks for the reply.
Kind of reassuring, probably won't be driving with my friends along for more than 30mins anyway, and if me and my friends are planning on going on a long road trip, one of their bigger cars will do haha. |

It's a little darker than that, and definitely more metallic. I swear there are some purple-ish hues in it but it may just be my eyes.

I actually like the DGM in the pics you took, but not sure if it's just the lighting.
