Wow... I hope we get a colour selection like this in Oz! Lava is looking sweet!

Why would they all be the exact same, but a few shades darker with different names? It wouldn't make sense from a production standpoint.

hmmm.. really? the hot lava looks a lot more reddish than the jdm orange metallic, ultramarine and argento also look very different from the jdm counterparts. but then again they're all photoshops so it's very hard to tell.

Once again though, and I'll reiterate, why would they offer they exact same color choices as japan, but a few shades darker for each one?

It simply doesn't make sense. I would bet on it that they are just bad images, and the real colors are the same for the FR-S vs. JDM 86

Why can't I pick 'silver'? Why does it have to be 'argento'?

cyde01 12-01-2011 09:05 PM

lol no need to reiterate, i'm not arguing with you or anything. just based off those pics its very hard to tell how the car is actually gonna look.

Zaku 12-01-2011 09:12 PM

So are we absolutely sure, ABSOLUTELY Sure that Scion didn't just rename Subaru/86 Japanese colors.

Yes it is. Just look at the difference with the red one (firestorm)

No we are not. And if you ask me, that's exactly what they did.

Hmm Im sure we can talk to SCION they're rep on twitter and FB are usually really nice and fast to answering question, because that looks suspiciously... close to Lighting Red and nothing like the brochure picture.

Cool. If you find out, let us know. The only thing that I suspect might be different is the White. It doesn't seem to be Satin White Pearl (again, it could just be the picture), so we might actually get the simple white color the super stripped down version in Japan gets.

cambo 12-01-2011 09:42 PM

I think the pics they released of each color are very inaccurate I'm just going to wait until they have pics released Of the actual car in person

Zaku 12-01-2011 10:16 PM

I asked on Scion's FB page, hopefully they'll answer and I wouldn't have to clarify facts to uninformed people on FB. You know they're gonna be people lol

Ryuu0u 12-01-2011 10:22 PM

Torn between the red and blue. My current car is white so i dont want another so might go with red. I'd have to see them in person though before i make the decision.

sazu 12-01-2011 10:25 PM

Hot Mama for me....



oops, i mean Hot Lava.

fab 12-01-2011 11:35 PM

Aw.. I wish I can change my answer. I voted blue, but argento looks pretty sick.
