Red, especially a pure and bright fire engine red, is notoriously difficult to photograph. That’s why it seems to look different in various photos and videos. Pure/bright red looking almost orange in photos is a pretty common issue.

I'm really digging the Neptune Blue. Reminds me of the blue of the Focus RS and Mustangs.

Its the most expensive colour option now I think. A far cry from the free base paint. To me it shows quite a pink and orange hue of red, which seems to change depending on the light. Whatever the case, it looks pretty amazing to me. |

It’s safe to say EVERYONE is going to be looking at eachother driving white or red 86’s. Lmao. Don’t you guys want to mix it up a little bit? Highly considering Trueno blue.

I've seen paint codes for the GR86 but I haven't seen them for the BRZ. Do we know which colors are the same and which are different? I'm pretty sure the BRZ "Sapphire blue pearl" and GR86 "trueno blue" are the same.

I think they are the same and yeah I haven’t seen the BRZ paint codes either, unless I skipped over someone mentioning it in earlier threads

Like World Rally Blue for Subaru, and Neptune blue for Toyota. The rest are just named differently with Subaru having the more generic nomenclature and Toyota going with a more funky naming scheme. |

Zero votes for my second choice? Black is an awesome color for any car.

Haven't seen bRed in person, but the way it seems to shift color and people describe it, reminds me a bit of VW Tornado Red. In direct sunlight it had a strong orange glow, in darker light it was like a cherry red, and in overcast and at sundown it had a pink tinge.
Really, really, really loved that color. However, it was a major pain in the ass to keep clean. I would wash and wax it, then drive it once, and you could almost immediatly see the most subtle layer of dust and road grim along the lower edge of the car and the hood and roof. It completely changed the look of the paint. I washed that car every weekend. Probably why I'll avoid bRed. But if you have a garage and love washing your car, go for it. It is probably right up there with black for beautifully difficult paints. |
