Pavement GR86 or Ice Silver BRZ?
Hey everyone. I'm struggling badly with a decision, would like to get some votes here. I have a deposit on an Ice Silver Limited BRZ at invoice that landed yesterday. I also have a deposit on a Pavement Grey Premium GR86 at msrp that lands first week of January. Which would you go with? I'm extremely torn.........

BRZ, silver was the launch colour & suits the car well. And so do gunmetal 18".
Were the 86 blue, I'd have a dilemma. Not in that case ;-) |

My answer is "BRZ, of course", because we're in the BRZ subforum!

Subaru used the Ice Silver in a lot of the press materials. The photos above make the gray look better because they are semi-pro phots vs. the silver which looks like the actual car you're buying. If your heart really wants the gray, get the gray since you'll regret it later. Color is a a personal decision, there's no "wrong choice".

Bought my ‘13 brz used so I didn’t get a choice in color. I would never choose silver, but ice silver metallic impresses me sometimes. It changes depending on environment, has some flavor and diversity to it. It still makes me gag a bit too lol. I think the Toyota is the better looking car this go round

I ordered a Ice Silver BRZ this month. But i watched a lot of videos since then and the WRB and the Magnetite Grey Metallic also look awesome and i started having second thoughts. Talked to the Subaru sales guy yesterday to see if color change was an option at this point (ordered but apparently not scheduled yet). He told me they can't even take pre-orders any more and that mine was the last allocation available from their two dealerships. Then he said there was a WRB Limited coming in i might be interested in. Unfortunately it's an Auto so not interested. I'm hoping that when i see the silver i will like it enough that i won't second guess my color choice.
