I couldn't see clearly in the picture, but did you completely take off the rear window?

EDIT: I saw your build thread. I see it now. Disregard my last post. That thing is awesome!

With the incremental development of the BRZ, the older brz's aren't going to sell themselves. I would think the local dealers would heavily discount the existing stock, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

I'm looking at the '15's just for the revised keyfob, carbon dash, and sharkfin antenna.
They don't because they can't. Subaru doesn't give them any rebates to sell them. Dealers who still have '13's on the lot are really doing it wrong, though. Subaru is so short on cars it's ridiculous.

I like the outside, but that shade of blue on the inside is terrible, does it have blue LED's in the dash instead of red?

Still red. Maybe this blue interior will match the new Corolla dash better lol!

If you guys are talking about the footwell illumination, even in the regular BRZ it can be specified blue or red, according to the Subaru website where you spec out your own.

No, they are referring to the blue stitching and accents on seats, doors and steering wheel and rest of the interiors.

Actually, I figured it out.
They were talking about the dash illumination, gauges, buttons, etc, which is still red.

Yes you got it.

Correct me if I'm wrong but for the footwell illumination, the North American kit only comes with colored lighting when the car is being driven at night, while the Japanese kit includes additional white lighting that lights up when the door is opened.

Huh, no idea. I assumed the footwell option would be when the doors were opened, etc. Someone who has them want to clarify?

I would love to know how this one looks as well. All we've seen is the WRB version, which I put down on a deposit on!

YES. As stated many times. The white S.B is exactly the same as the Blue.

My dealer just let me know they have a blue one coming in...Ugh, I want a white one.
