The BRZ went from a moustache to mutton chops.

And the 86 looks to be getting a swashbuckling Errol Flynn pencil moustache.

Except for the Aston Martin DBX, which is a dead ringer for the Escape.

I swear I'm not dreaming this up, but weren't the only BRZ colours available in Canada for the 2013s White, Black, Silver and WRB?
I wanted Red when I got mine, but I distinctly remember the brochures did not have the red!

Red used to be available, it disappeared in the last 3 model years or thereabouts.

I remember being disappointed that the only colours available to us were Black (boring), White (boring), Silver (boring), and WRB (played out - come at me!).

Would've loved to run a red with gold wheels combo....

I don't know what to tell you two. That photo was taken Dec. 27, 2013. It clearly is a red BRZ. Furthermore, I have found red offered in every model year I've searched including for the this last 2020 Gen 1 version.
