From the deductions yes, wouldn't make sense for them to use more than one set of paint. No official text, only official from Subaru was that they are 7 colors. I actually took it upon myself to talk to someone at Scion corporate but they did not reply to me in regards of the question." are these just Subaru colors renamed?" guess it was too blunt. But from all the pictures we have seen, Whiteout is Satin White Pearl. Also from eye witness accounts when people saw the black one at car and coffee they said it was likely Galaxy Black, and if I remember Ichi saw the red Scion and said it was basically Lighting red.

Take from that what you will. I'll try and confirm my findings when the cars come to DC at the end of this month.

good find. It has to have the same ac as the FR-S...the premium does not have the Dual Zone AC only the limited.

Looks like the BRZ Premium is just like the FR-S but with HIDS.

Mark my words the Scion Bespoke will be standard on the FR-S.

I was kinda hoping that they just gave the standard Pioneer, I kinda want to put it my own aftermarket screen, or just leave it alone. I'm gonna go with the opposite of you and say FRS will have Bespoke as option and you get a normal Pioneer.I can't see any wrongs with either decision

They are making this way to difficult...but at least we know what we are getting in the BRZ. Come on Scion...finalize and tell us what we are suppose to get?

I hear ya and I am OK with that but if you read the Bespoke presentation it sounds like they want this to be standard. If not nobody will ever buy it on their Scions. The Bespoke is more of a telematics system than a navigation system So that's why it might be standard on the FR-S. It's just a theory.

Right now...I am leaning back towards the FR-S...If I go BRZ it will be the limited version. I see no reason to get the BRZ premium over the FR-S.

It's also very possible that there will be a lot of options on the FR-S. Maybe why we have not seen a final specs and configuration.

They are just playing the Bespoke system up like everyone should have it(aka buy the option). There's been too many Scion FR-S photos already with a non-nav stereo. And since Scion is only in the US, it's pretty safe to assume that it's not for another market as we found out with the BRZ having nav as standard even though there were pictures with non-nav stereos.

BRZ premium will have HIDs and nav as standard which FR-S will not. So there's reason enough to choose it over the FR-S(at least for some people).

Kind of hoping with the verbiage used that the controls will look the same (i know, wishful thinking) but just not dz or automatic.

But it also starts at ground level... which takes some tire height into account, and I'm sure it's not 100% to scale.
