Very nice video. It's good to see the car in some average driving.

At least now I know I don't want red. :)

I love you this much <-------------------------:)-------------------------->

Cause of that video...also now I'm happy with my choice of going grey :D

As much as the fact in General Red is my favorite color... I just can't seem to bring my self to love Lighting red. It just isn't as nice of a Red that I thought it be, it makes me hesitate in my color choice. But after seeing in on HD CAM in natural lighting... it looks faded to me. It's just not as nice as I know this is going to sound ridiculous but like the nice reds on the more expensive exotic cars. Like the Code red on the FRS concept etc...but I'll save my full judgement for it when I see it in person. Right now it's just Number 2 choice it's a nice color but it's just not my number 1. that and my number 1 is losing in the poll XD


too bad they don't have Plasma Blue... :( guess that will stay WRX only.

Thanks for the video. Could've used a lot more of DGM, oh well.
I love the DGM, just too concerned about how it would look after a week of commuting w/o a fresh wax job.

It looks like it's almost black in the vid doesn't it, thats the only gripe I had with it. If I was gonna get a car that is that dark in color I might as well get black, it's probably the same maintenance level. But still it's a lovely color that people should see in person :D !

I concur with the statement above. That red looks like it sat in the sun to long and its starting to fade. And its brand new! I wish they would of went with a deeper red!

Does the DGM have the same color code to Asphalt?
I can see myself switching BRZ front for FR-S front. LOL It might be difficult, but I really want BR-Z interior in FR-S.

I actually searched this a while ago and while I cannot recall I'd venture yes. I was set on the FRS before but I realized that for not too much more money I would end up with the car exactly how I wanted it. I was planning on getting the FRS and doing the upgrades myself to make it on par with the BRZ trim level. But its just not worth it.

Yeah it's the same thing Dark. I think Colholm who worked for Toyota confirmed it for us not to long ago on the FRS colors being the same.

This is nice, but I'm still totally getting WRB! Reminds me of RSP on the Supras...

Sweet. Thanks Zaku. Replacing wouldn't be too hard.

You can always paint the FRS bumper to WRB for similar cost.

I could, but I wanna see if I can remove the retainer on the BRZ first, because the 'shops looks awesome.
