2020 "Green" special edition
By now most people will probably have seen the news that Toyota will be offering the Hakone 'green' special edition FRS in the US:
https://www.roadandtrack.com/new-car...e-photos-msrp/ What do you think? Will there be a BRZ version of this? Or will it be a Toyota-only special? |

How much longer do y’all see the current gen 86/BRZ be sold? All of these special editions being just parts bin nonsense.. I don’t see it stirring up any added interest at all.

They can't stir up interest if nobody but forum guys on the internet know about them. They are secret cars as far as marketing goes.

I'd be in with a BRZ front end and PP.
I regret not getting a Limited with PP in the first place. Live and learn. |

I'm guessing Series.Orange.
The BRZ color seems to come from the Crosstrek (hyper blue and yellow). Orange is the next Crosstrek only color. I wish they would do one in Island Blue though like the Impreza |

Mercedes has a new blue they're calling Denim Blue Metallic, looks awesome in person. WRB is obviously a Subaru thing, be nice to see the BRZ in a few more colors though.

The BRG Miata became collectable as soon as it was released, and is still sought after. If anything, the BRG 86 will be something worth holding on to.

On track with the Crosstrek colors though. I’d say whatever new color it comes in for 2020 will be the new Series.Color for 2020. |

I'll go with Series.beige to honor the majority of Toyotas between 2000-2010s
