The factory touchscreen was introduced with the 2014 model year, and the back-up camera with the 2015 model year - those are probably the biggest differences between any of them; the rest is very minor aesthetics, and other tweaks that are probably indiscernible.

Ah, that's correct - I was glancing through the thread and edited my post to include the back-up camera since I saw some people posting about it, but I don't actually remember if it was the 2015 or 2016 model year that it was introduced.

Just the touchscreen then in terms of significant differences then @OP, (IMO) everything else is just cosmetic (shark fin, etc) or too minor of a 'performance' tweak to make a noticeable difference. Unless you're a fan of silver, in which case argento did change to steele (I loved the argento coloring ).

In addition to that, Argento was replaced with Steel.

The 2016 model year also replaces Ultramarine with Oceanic and Firestorm with Ablaze.

If you were looking at a WRB BRZ, the shade is also slightly different between 2014 and 2015.
