I orginially wanted that pearl white or maybe a color with more metalic in it but when I saw the red in person I just couldn't keep my eyes off of it. It's plain and appropriate at the same time lol

Just depends on what you like and what you want ... I agonized over red, white, or grey for the longest time.

If you want to be different - go with red or silver...they are by far the most rare colors for BRZs...i see TONS of white, WRB, and blacks and a handful of dark grey and Galaxy blues...

Or if you think you might do vinyl, or change the rims or any kind of mod...i bet dark grey, black or white make for the best background for some colors that really pop :3 (I'd love to see someone do a dark grey with neon yellow/green brake calipers and decals, smoked lights, and blacked out emblems...oops topic of a different thread...)


If you want low maintenance...probably go for grey or silver... dont' see the dirt or dings as much :P


I'd say just go stare at the cars (irl if you can find one...go to a meet-up or something) and pick the one that you can't take your eyes off of and just decide if you can live with it.

(..as much as I lusted after the red one- I decided I couldn't deal with the color on a day to day basis...so I got something almost equally high maintenance )

I love my Subie, so WRB was a must

However, mods are definitely easier to match on White/Gray/Black. I'm still kinda standoffish about red/smoked tails, or blacking out the fronts etc.

WRB leaves you with pretty much 2 options for accent colors, Gold (Classic), or Black (standard).

Thinking about WRBP at the moment. I may have to see them again in person.

Current personal popularity:

Top runners:

1. WRBP
2. Black
3. DGM

Too far behind most likely:

4. Red
5. Galaxy Blue

No Buy:

7. White
8. Silver

Crystal Black, WRB, LR over other stock colors Subaru offers. Nuff said.

I vote WRB!

For me it was a toss up between Red or WRB for my personal car, and since I already had a WRB STi, and have owned 8 Subarus I decided to go WRB and just adore the color. But to be honest, I don't think you could go wrong with any color!

Thanks,
Rick

Yeah, I would like to know what you mean by "flashy heat score."

WRB on and overcast day is gorgeous. That's what sold me on it.

You're lucky to have the choices that you do. Canada has WRB, silver, white, and black. That's it. If Galaxy Blue isn't in the mix for you, I'd say go WRB.

I would have no issues buying a WRBP now, the others I think on for various reasons.

This is true, at night it was a cool color for other reasons too. I may just go back to this color again...
