Thus I bought the Series.Blue BRZ instead. Got that in July. Granted it isn't as stuffed with extras like the RS 1.0, but I feel like it has much better value. Plus I don't think the released versions aren't equipped with the 18-inch TRD wheels, but rather just the typical OEM wheels.

I might be a bit bias but I think the s.b is a better deal then the rs1.0
That might be because I got mine for 2k less then sticker.

Series.Blue Standard Trim:

STI Black front, side, and rear quarter under spoilers
STi wheels (17" black w/STI center caps)
JDM Underbody panels
Frameless day-night rear view mirror
Floor mats with silver BRZ logo and blue trim
Two-tone blue and black leather Steering Wheel
Two-tone blue and black leather Alcantara seats w/Silver embroidered BRZ logo.
Interior highlighted with blue stitching
Blue stitched Padded Knee pads on doors and center console
Red STi illuminated start button
Red painted brake calipers
Dash panel and audio trim, simulated carbon fiber, large pattern


The rs1.0 does have a lot of extras like the color, springs and aero kit but the exhaust is not a full exhaust, just Quad Tipped.. so people are prob going to replace that anyway.
What gets me is they are trying to advertise the rs1.0 with all these extras like "HID Headlamps with LED Daytime Running Lights. Inside you’ll find Dual-zone Automatic Climate Control, a Smart Key with Push Button Start" That are pretty much standard on the BRZ limited already. They could have at least gave the rs1.0 some fog lights
Either way both cars are awesome.
