im pretty sure its because the sales for GBS is significantly lower compared to the other colours. it really is a colour that is taken for granted. =\

It's the best color (personal opinion), when I picked up my SWP, a week later I saw a GBS on this forum I was dumbfounded as to why I didn't pick that up instead. Later checked it just wasn't available in Canada

Yea I'm Definitely going with GBS or aquamarine. I fell in love with that color the moment I saw it! I just don't know ima go with frs or brz. I love the look of the frs(front bumper and all) looks a bit more aggressive IMO but I want the brz limited for the hid, nav, and push to start/remote start. So I'm lost as to which to get. I know you can easily install a push to start / remote start but it will never perform as well as factory and plenty of risks in aftermarket ones too

depend what you really want because it can get costly. Push to start is easy but dont plan on getting the HVAC or lights. On that note I am very happy with my ultramarine frs

Yea I mean, hvac I don't really mind too much. I'm single so not too many people ever get in my car. And what lights? And the push to start/hids are really the only things I'd need. So now that I see it that way, cheaper to get an frs lol... Ultramarine frs it is! Now to just save up for this down payment!

I must say, I'm in love with your build. This is pretty damned close to what I will be doing to mine once I get her ordered.

Are you all saying the BRZ won't be available in GBS anymore? How big of a window do I have to order one in that color, from your understanding?

you can't order it, only whats on the lots now. 2014 wont have GBS and i believe you can't order a 13 anymore...so basically your window is what you can find now. best of luck man!

Someone just ordered one yesterday in that color at my dealership of choice. I guess I may have to settle for having my dealer find one or going for WR Blue (nice color, but that GBS is boxer-ruining beautiful)
