But both look awesome!

EDIT: I reserved a WRB Series.Blue, but the White is growing on me! More pics to compare them two if anyone has them please!
What pics would you like? I have them both here, they're just parked on opposite ends of my lot.

If you could take exterior and interior photos of the two different angles, I would greatly appreciate it. I think a lot of us would appreciate it also!

More so showcasing how they look side by side and which exterior matches with the blue interior best.

What is the approximate price range of a series blue? I'm happy with my 2013 Fr-s but I never got to find out the MSRP

Sorry, all I have is a phone on me, so the quality isn't that great, but these should get the basics across.

I really like the white color, but I personally feel the blue interior is out of place in contrast to the outside (white with splotches of pink, amber, and red). I am planning, for my car (SWP), to purchase and install the side-skirts and maybe the STI wheels. If I owned a WRB, I'd be kicking myself for not waiting for this edition. The blue on blue/black looks gorgeous.

Thanks a lot man. These pictures do it. That WRB is, by the way, much darker than previous years WRB.

I think i'm set on the WRB color for my Series.Blue, because I agree with you. The white looks off with the blue interior, but you can't go wrong with either one.

I can't wait to receive mine in Late July!

EDIT:

Any interior photos besides the one before? Also, do you know if they are individually numbered? It would be great to know what number the car you get is in the Series.Blue and how many of the 500 in that color...

That would be a nice touch.

Thanks a LOT man. After seeing those interior pics, i'm convinced that the WRB is the best to get in the Series.Blue.

Now I REALLY can't wait to receive my car.....this wait is already killing me.....

Can anyone confirm the color chip/color code of the new blue?

I like the white better than the blue; however, I think the blue would look better than the white if it had the silver STi wheels.
Perhaps if the black wheels were more of a flat black/matte black
The red stitching interior appeals more to me than the blue.
I really like that CF trim around the front of the dash though

I believe it just looks dark bc it's in the shade. You'd be surprised how different the WRB color can look based on lighting. (Though it never looks as washed as the color in GT6 /rant)

I took the white one because blue shows imperfection more such as scratch, rock chip and dings very easily. The picture is shown park next to my 04 wrx

That's standard on all trim levels for 2015. No more silver.
