Alright guys lets settle this right now. Silver is the fastest color by far...

I believe that was delayed, though our cars are ready for it. I remember i accidentaly went to a debug screen on the brz radio (trying to restart it without turning the car off) and it had an option for the rear view camera. I bet it has the inputs, just needs a hole in the bumper and the physical camera.

You can talk about anything you want, but that is not what I was talking about. Nice try.

Yeap, essentially plug and play with svxdc's harness. More information on: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17020. Recently installed mine and with a Rydeen Duo looks OEM. Have had people ask me whether it was an option when I bought the car

Sorry fellas, the only cars I'd ever buy in silver would be a 911, an Aston Martin, or a classic Mercedes-Benz. I'm not too keen on the color otherwise.

Hey, try to make personal attacks on me you want....

that isn't going to change the fact it was excruciatingly stupid to say that an FRS in silver is "following the crowd".

Beginning to look that way. I guess I'll hold onto the BRZ until mid 2014!

Looks like the silver release series is checking out so far. Scion FR-S with the HIDs from the GT86 in a special edition silver?
I guess that's the new release series right there.

Also, the new 6.1" touchscreen head unit will be standard equipment for all 2014 models.
