If I lived in a sunnier state I'd probably get it.

I actually love how clouds look in GBS/Ultramarine. Yes, I did slightly play with the contrast and saturation on this.

I can't express my utter disappointment in regards to that enough. /s

They definitely either changed it or discontinued it in Australia... I haven't seen another galaxy blue ft86 for at least 6 month.

I really like this car in blue. I was actually wanting to bite the bullet and buy one in that color. Too bad!

I love my ultramarine. It is the perfect combination of classy meets sexy meets manly. If it is discontinued it will make Ultramarine 86 even more desirable and rare. Whatever works

I wouldn't mind if they discontinued making it in Ultramarine. It'd be a very rare color in the near future.

Its been rumored. I went to the rosemead frs meet and a toyota corporate member even said they might discontinue the color not saying who though

Ultramarine is a fantastic color, and one of my favorites. That would be a shame if they discontinued it.

I assumed that they discontinued it for the BRZ because they had two blue options, and it seems like (in general) when a car company offers two different shades of the same color one of them tends to only be around for a limited time.

Being that WRB was so popular, it would make sense that they chose to discontinue the GBS, but yeah - they didn't end up releasing a new color to replace it, so their choice to discontinue it for the BRZ is still unclear to me.

Actually Id dig it if they discontinued Ultramarine. That would make ours special. Seriously. Harder to find. Worth a few bux more. Not seeing yourself go down the street so much.

2014 Ultrmarine models are already being sold so if they discontinue it it won't be until 2015. It is one of the more rare colors but I think the new Ultramarine Monogram I ordered is going to look great in sunny North Carolina. By my calculations, (assuming the production percentages posted on this site are correct) there will be only 25 Ultramarine MT Monograms sold in the US and I will own one of them!

I test drove my FRS on a rainy day. It was an ultramarine. I was waiting for a call from the dealer about the other cars available in the area as I didn't like the color.

Meanwhile I checked out the ultramarine pics on the internet (sunny pictures!). I called him back and said I want that car I test drove now lol.

Looks fantastic in the light, muddy in the shades. I love the metallic in it.
