I went with the WRB BRZ, why? I couldn't really tell you, deep down I just had to have one of them, but something pulled me to the BRZ. Weather it was the better suspension however minimal it is, or the fact I don't like the scion crowd. Another reason, I didn't want what everyone else was getting, except I picked the most sought after color haha. I'd say go with the FR-S and re-badge it to Toyota. That's what I would go if I was in your situation. However I would do ultramarine, bout out of your two, white would just look so damn clean :D

The white on the BRZ was sex. I haven't been able to see any other color but the Hot Lava in the FR-S. I'm assuming the whites are the same. The BRZ has some serious pluses but the black bumper bar bothers me the slightest bit

Brz
Blue
Better interior head unit + nav, unique color option
And personally i like the subaru badge better than scion

How this helps :)

Def helps! All the opinions make me reflect on mine so it all helps

BRZ because of all the extra amenties.
SWP over WRB because that was my 2nd color choice and I love pearl finishes.

Nice!

SWP BRZ. Still turns heads without catching the attention from cops with hot lava or WRB.

The Chrome Fender trim on white matches very well

That's beautiful bro!

I have to agree with the SWP. I think the car is beautiful and stands on its own. It doesn't need a flashy color to stand out. Sometime less is better!

Of course I'm biased as I have a SWP BRZ, but truly I think you can't go wrong with any color BRZ.

AndreaCristiano 08-05-2012 06:42 PM

Ok so SWP it is and BRZ is leading now as well. :)

I was in almost the exact same position as you - it was down to black, white, and orange/blue (depending if I went FRS or BRZ). Orange was starting to edge out ahead for me, but then I saw the WRB in person - it looks REALLY good. Think of the best looking picture of a WRB BRZ on this forum and that's how it looks in person.

So my suggestion is to buzz around a few dealers and see if you can get a sampling of what all the colors look like in person, it can change your perception really fast.

I wish it was that easy. Out of all the dealers around here only one has a BRZ and the two FR-S I have seen were in parking lots one black one Hot lava. I would love to see the blue in person. I mean I will have a chance as I'm waiting at least this year. Although if the 12-18 months wait is true I should be ok :)

if your going with a brz pick wrb since its the only color that scion doesn't have.
