DGM or WRB?
Ok, the time has come but I can't decide whether I want WRB or DGM.
I love both (used to have a DGM IS300) and currently have a WRB'ish Echo Hatch so I really don't care either way. Does anyone know which is more common? Frost

Go look at it in person, in the day and night. I personally wanted something less flashy and did not want to wash my car too often, so I went with ice silver mettalic (1GU) instead of WRB. 2015 WRB has changed slightly over the older models so take note of that.

I am also changing my mind on a daily basis. I have seen the DGM live and I have to say it looks great. It makes the car look more expensive then it actually is.
I had my mind set on white, but having seen DGM live I tend to sway towards that. I also owned a own a dark grey IS300 btw. WRB is lower on my want list because I understand the rally pedigree of the WRX but with a BRZ not so much because that is basically a borderline Subaru after all (no offence). And the blue makes it more a boy racer kind of car. But then I can change my mind again in a heartbeat. Last edited by Guru Woodman; 03-03-2015 at 05:32 PM. |

at first i wanted the white but after seeing the WRB with some black accents and all, i knew i had to have it in the blue. I like the DGM but i feel like there's no contrast in the car. You don't see the fender fake vents, the front grille isn't as contrasted and the rear bumper black section is too hidden with the DGM.
Your call though! ![]()

I personally like DGM the best. I have a SWP but if I had to it again I would get DGM. Both are great colors, WRB is the most popular but if you wanna be different get DGM.

DGM man! WRB is fresh for those who love the classic Subie style, but this isn't a rally car... and that DGM looks mean and clean on the street.
Although, I may be biased since I own a DGM.

I voted for WRB and I feel that the DGM looks much nicer on a FRS. @Cockatoo has a FRS in DGM and it looks very nice glossed up. Looks black from afar, but the shade and gloss is great up close.
However, I think the curvey design of the BRZ doesn't suit DGM. Same reason I don't like the red on a BRZ either. Personal preference though! TLDR: BRZ looks best in white and WRB in my opinion. |

In the end it comes down to what you like! ![]() At least that's how i see it xD if anything think of the long term. What you plan to do to the car if any. The wheel colors and whatnot and how you want your car to look.
