Was driving to work today on I-95 in Philly around the Walt Whitman bridge when I see a sharp looking sporty car ahead of me...I then realized it was the BRZ - with Subaru corporate being just over the bridge in Cherry Hill, NJ, a corporate tester is the most likely what this is

Sorry about the crappy quality, it was drizzling and the focus was off on my iPhone as I was doing 70 and trying to take the pics

DAMNIT. Why did I take the other way home from work!?

Giccin · 12-20-2011, 06:35 PM

Maybe its the weather lighting. o_o

Looks all gloomy

Laika · 12-20-2011, 06:37 PM

Cool beans.

Longhorn248 · 12-20-2011, 06:56 PM

Sweet, definitely a darker blue than what we've seen.

old greg · 12-20-2011, 06:56 PM

It's just this color, in lower light.

NemesisPrime909 · 12-20-2011, 07:01 PM

finally something cool in Jersey

Any Subi fans remember Blue Ridge Pearl? Could be a return of that color, which was very popular.

Are Toyota and Subaru sharing the same colors? It does look similar to Galaxy blue but Subaru might have their own version, a less darker color similar to Azurite blue pearl.

awesome spotting!! That color is nice!

WingsofWar · 12-20-2011, 08:22 PM

i was also thinking along the lines of galaxy blue...but the fact that its already dark in those pictures makes it hard to decern. Is the tone the same or the actual blue tone is lighter but looks dark from the pictures because of the overcast lighting?
