My Bluetooth works 100% of the time; the nav system is sluggish but it works. The whole interface blows goats and needs an update though, no question! I wouldn't consider it an "added value" even though I did when I bought it. The value of the Limited BRZ to me is the leather/Alcantara seats (BRZ Premium seats are good too but I can't stand the FR-S fabric and colors), HID headlamps, keyless access/push start and the auto climate control. Heated seats/mirrors sounded good until I made the decision that I would never drive it in winter. If I didn't already purchase my BRZ by the time the 10 series came out I would've considered it, but ultimately would've decided on the BRZ because silver is my least favorite color and glowing badges are, well, not to my taste let's just say.

can you confirm? There's a relay for the heated mirrors...



...that's present is all of the BRZ's in the dealers lot...



...and missing from the FR-S



My Subaru parts guy is 100% certain that all of the BRZ's have heated mirrors because he only shows one part number for that assembly regardless of trim level. The website shows it standard for the Limited and excluded for the Premium.

More importantly (to me anyways), sitting at the dealership right now is are a set of heated mirrors waiting for me. If you have a premium or a limited could you confirm?

I've heard the same about the nav, but the bluetooth is no knock specifically to the BRZ. My bluetooth connects to my phone way less than 30% of the time (more like 5-10%). The bluetooth in this car really sucks. I had zero bluetooth issues in my 2012 Focus for the 2+ years I owned it.

*Split back seats removed, I just removed all back seat entries because they are all identical.
*Removed heated mirrors for the premium.
*Clarified solar knob only on the AT.
*Relabeled Keyless Access to Touch Access so that it's more clear what it is. It's next to Keyless Entry (fob) which they all have and was confusing (I thought).

It is available, just not well documented I guess. Probably because we're in transition in terms of the 2014 head unit becoming the standard option but the 2014 FR-S isn't available yet.

It's a module you add to the existing system I believe.

Couple things I didn't see on there.

1.) The BRZ Premium lacks the silver interior accents (center, door pulls) that all other models get.


2.) BRZs have the fabric trim inside the trunk. FRSes are missing this (not sure about 10-series.)

That's a tricky one because it's not a feature per se that some are lacking. They all have trim, just different colors.

I'll add it, good catch. 10 Series does not have this either.

There aren't a whole lot of differences between the cars, so I just figured it should be included, since it does somewhat make the interior look a bit more "low rent" imo.
