A question about colour! - Page 3 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Under good light, CWP is great, but every now and then I come across a WRB BRZ and feel like my car is less of a Subaru

Yes DGM also has a hint of blue hue under certain lighting conditions. It's very Subaru.

Wrb here, i love it but it wasn't even my first choice. I wanted white, red, orange but then when I saw wrb i was stunned.

I do wish i got orange though, under the sun it's amazing.

I only researched/bought a BRZ because I saw the Hyperblue

Hyperblue is gorgeous. I would have really struggled if it was available when I was in the market.

I've got a CWP and KIND of wish I got the DGM.

Everyone in my city has a damn white car. The car looks great though in white don't get me wrong... its just the color loses its appeal every time I see another white car.
And then i wash it, give it a nice wax and my love for white starts all over again.

The cycle keeps repeating.

I really like my 2013 silver Limited. Looking at the brochures before the car was in production I favored the pearl white. Saw the car in the flesh at a car show and it was silver... I knew it was the color I wanted.

It's an elegant, soft silver. Kinda retro. Like an old Aston Martin might wear.

I would like to see it in British Racing Green just for fun

Nope. I love blue and went with the BRZ in WRB. Haven't regretted that decision once. I do wish the BRZ was offered in more colors though, like a dark brown or gold. Then I may think twice about my WRB.

Jeff D · 11-04-2016, 03:09 PM

GBS, only color I wanted. Thankfully I was lucky enough to find a low mileage one since that color was long gone before I was ready to buy.

+1 for dark green.

Love white aesthetically on this car, but it is annoying to keep clean.

For colors that should be easier to keep clean (aka colors for lazy people like me), red was my second choice and it still looks great. WRB also looks fantastic.

spicyricecake · 11-04-2016, 03:59 PM

WRB or CWP is the way to go.

WRB pops in a crowd. CWP really brings the lines of the car out, and is easier to maintain from swirls.

Both are pretty common colors for 86 owners, but i'll say more people have white cars, and among those 86s, compared to a blue car.

So if I got a 2nd car it'd be a white one, but I'm happy with my WRB

Tcoat · 11-04-2016, 04:14 PM

How is this even a question?

Myv · 11-04-2016, 04:20 PM

GBS, too bad wasn't available for Canada.
