Guys,

As promised, here are the pictures of my car and the key fob. I am not a fan of the blue seats and the steering wheel either but it turns out not as bad as I thought.

Sorry for the crappy pictures as I am not a pro-photographer. Only crappy cellphone pics available.

Cheers!

Need that key fob.

Blue trim seats look alright but the BRZ stitching needs to go.

im sure lot of people on the forum would gladly trade with red stitching ones with cash on top...blue stitching is so tacky and ricy.

Also, just for reference, I don't understand why they did a white colored version of the Series.Blue.

Taking the blue interior into account, it just looks so off.

I feel like I'm the only person who likes the blue interior. It's totally 90s.

Thanks for posting the pictures @botbs--car looks great!

@x1UP, the previous key looks like this (taken from cars101.com page):



More of a "flattish" design. Personal preference--I like the new key more.

FYI for those who didn't know, the '13-14 keyless entry fobs are exact same as the Toyota keyless fobs.

Will the new fob work and be able to re-program with the 2013 BRZ ?

Thanks

Find a dealer and have them test it. Nobody here will know until someone tries.

1. The "BRZ" stitching on the seat looks tacky.
2. It really, really, really sucks that they drilled the license plate holder onto your bumper already.
3. As far as the key fob goes, although it does look better, it's all proximity so it'll rarely be seen out of your pocket to even appreciate the nice design.
4. The steering wheel looks bad with those big blue segments.
5. The seats and steering wheel don't match the red leds on your clock and gauges anymore.
6. Black wheels got old for me after a while. You can't even appreciate the design of your wheels after the sun goes down.

Those are my opinions about it. The only thing I really like is the trim kit.

I just saw the new 2015 BRZ blue series (Aozora Edition up here in Canada) and I don't really like it. The blue interior is not that great. The Limited (Sport-Tech in Canada) is the better option, you get the red stitching interior. Just buy the front lip some black wheels later on. Atleast that's my plan.

thanks for posting the new pics from Wolfe Subaru, I definitely like the new white so far.
any pics of your new vehicle outside in the sun and later on in the evening?

Thanks,
Mike
