Any idea if the GR86 Premium vs base gets the same audio upgrade?

We likely won't have that info till the full model info shows up on the big S/T websites. All we know for now is you get 2 more speakers on the Limited.

It's not THAT big of deal, but I remember the stereo in my '15 BRZ Limited was just absolutely abysmal. And that's not something I particularly want to spend a few thousand on in the aftermarket to correct.

don't shoot info from your behind, and share what makes you believe that. At a glance sheet from subaru listed all differences, and audio wasn't on it.

Apologies for not reading all 167 pages of this thread. Anyone else think this looks like the same chassis with a bigger motor and a weekend in Paris with a Cayman offspring look?

Easy there, friend. The pricing letter sent to dealers stated the limited model includes upgraded audio.

I haven't seen the letter, but I'd rather trust the official subaru document, than what could be just another dealer screw-up. If somebody has the mentioned cos sent to dealers, Id love to see it.

Can't share it publicly because it has other sales data on it. Here's info on the Limited from the doc:

The most popular trim level, BRZ Limited, packs a lot of value into the BRZ
with:
• Upgraded Audio
• Ultrasuede® and Leather Trimmed Front Seats
• Heated Seats and Heated Side Mirrors.
For the first time, BRZ Limited offers:
• 18 Inch Alloy Wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4 Tires for
even better handling and driving dynamics.
• SUBARU STARLINK® Safety and Security
• Steering-Responsive Headlights
• Blind Spot Detection

I believe the upgraded audio is only 2 extra speakers. The 200w subwoofer cost extra

It has everything that at a glance doc + audio. Considering, I trust more Subaru official doc, but I guess we'll have to wait to find out for sure

Well it's the official subaru doc that clearly states what limited has over premium. Obviously, subaru would prefer everybody get limited, so not mentioning upgraded audio as a limited perk would be quite embarrassing for Subaru of America.
