Even if it doesn't have a lift profile it still promotes more economy for consumers looking at specs.

This is the problem with being a Subaru fan. The rest of the world has had something like DAVCS for like 20 years now, so it's not a big deal, but for Subaru it's big news

You could see the mechanisms on the motors. Plus the econo FB had them so it wasn't a stretch to assume even without the pics of the motor.

And +1 on not really being a big deal since Subaru was a bit late to the party on this.

Sorry Subaru BRZ fans, nothing new on the BRZ side of things from the Detroit Autoshow.

statuskuo · 01-09-2012, 03:41 PM

Thanks regardless !

switchlanez · 01-09-2012, 03:42 PM

Thanks for the pics!

Is there any info on the name of that blue paint scheme?

Ryephile · 01-09-2012, 03:47 PM

Thanks Hachi!

Good to see officially the options on the Premium & Limited. I'm a bit miffed the spoiler is only on the Limited...ditto the foglights.

From what we know so far this means the BRZ Premium only adds HIDs and Nav over the FR-S. Now we'll have to wait for pricing.

i guess your right..i always figured they were just sensors rather AVCS mechanisms.

lol I thought we knew that already too?

BRZ limited is just not worth. By the way, I did not know it had 8 speakers. Looks like 4 on the dashboard, 2 on front doors and 2 on rear side panels.
