Well this helps narrow down between just these two.

I like how Dark Grey Metallic looks on the BRZ. I've seen Lightning Red and it doesn't sit well with me on this car.

I suspect the result will reflect their overall relative popularity. Another reason I would have went with dgm - the red is a little less striking than I would like in some lighting situations... Also dgm is a lower maintenance color

Red because it is rarer and....looks way better with the black accents of the car

OakmanSmalls · 08-31-2013, 12:08 AM

Like the red especially w white wheels BUT I have a dgm and I love it. So I'd pick dgm again

A proper sports car should be in red.

Dadhawk · 08-31-2013, 12:56 PM

Obviously, I'm going to pick Red....

Doesn't really work that way, been proven many times. Also, from experience, every sports car I've ever owned has been Red, and I drove occiasionally like a maniac.

Only speeding tickets I've ever gotten have been in family type cars. Probably because I'm more deligent about where I "push the envelope" in a sports car than I am in a family car.

My plan is Black wheels with TOM's tails and carbon fiber aero kits but not a huge spoiler if not stock and finally tint.

I think, other than the TOMs everythign else would contrast out nicely. Toms will still look nice however.

Ultimate goal is a widebody kit ( minus a giant spoiler) and some form of forced induction dropped in.

then plans for stuff like exhasust and weight shredding is there too...

How do you figure? There are no WRB FR-S's out there and FR-S's outnumber BRZ's like 2:1.

Far more grey and red cars out there than WRB.

You got left in the dust by every soccer mom in town because you drive a DGM.

In that case, Red every day all day because they are faster....

gt8613 · 08-31-2013, 06:54 PM

Perhaps. All the suby dealers tell me WRB is very popular. Also Clint said red is the rarest.
