Has to be exotic to be yellow IMO. Even if I could afford an exotic, it would not be yellow.

I think this kind of mindset is because modern cars lack lively color choices unlike the old days.

I love yellow cars! It is important that they counter it with enough black trim pieces though and from the pics that is exactly what they did with this one. Would buy if looking for another car when they come out.

But then I hate "rental" white, "I love to wash my car daily" black or "I want to look like a BMW" silver cars and would not own one even if it was the only way I could get that model.

Who knows how or why, but I do not like yellow. The same with red, but I'd own a red car before a yellow car. I actually had a red car, 3 cars ago, because it was the only Integra GS-R I could find and afford. It grew on me.

The yellow and black gives me bumble bee vibes. I know everyone has their own taste, but it's just not for me.

Nah, not trying to convince you to like it just saying I do like them. Debating colour preferences is like debating what flavour of ice cream is best. There is no way anybody can be right or wrong. This really applies when everybody is judging a colour based upon pictures on a monitor. Not only can we all see a different shade based on our equipment we can only see it from the angles selected by the photographer. These angles are not always the most flattering no matter how hard they try. All that aside if you are not a "over here look at me" type of personality then the flashier colours will not appeal to you. Says the guy driving the bright orange (when sunny out) car!

As somebody pointed out above there was a day when there was a whole rainbow of colours available and the whites, blacks and silvers were the minority. Cars were yellow, red, green, brown, purple and just about anything but the modern "standard" colours but changing paint on the assembly line is not cost effective so they gradually reduced the number of colours and now the brighter/different ones seem weird and out of place to a whole generation. That could be the source of your "bumble bee vibe". Unless of course you were referring to The Bumble Bee and then that is a whole different view based on pop culture and association.
The BRZ would make one small ass weak Transformer!

I'm pretty sure this has been answered or asked many times, but is this Series.Yellow the same code as the Yuzu Yellow on the RS1.0?

Like how the RS2.0 is basically the same color as some of the Subaru cars? Desert Khaki?

I just can't wait for someone to take a pictures with these two together that's all

No it's not. It says in the pdf file that it's charlesite yellow. It's a lighter yellow. It may be called brilliant yellow stateside.

IMO, only Ferraris can pull off the yellow look.
Yellow is a Lambo color a lot more than a Ferrari's tho

My S2000 was yellow and so will my BRZ. Yellow is acceptable on any sports car. I drawn the line with pickups and SUVs

I think it's nice that it comes in yellow. It's not the shade of yellow I like but still it's nice that it did. I like the yellow like the AP2 S2000 yellow Rio Yellow and the yellow that's on the Lotus car like the evora and Elise
