Still showing as normal on the Subaru BRZ site. But if they make it Subaru exclusive, that would be great for us few GBS BRZ orderers.

Mate, I don't know what you mean. All colours except red have always been an "option", considering they are metallic. Is that what you mean? I just had a look at the Toyota website and it looks like nothing has changed. |

Its the exact same blue that it currently has. I remember askingt his very question when I first saw that picture compared to the one we where to be getting for the 86. The colour code is the same as the galaxy. Its a bad picture.
It sucks too as that lighter colour is absolute sex, and is my prefered colour. |

The pictures on their website are heavily rendered. The colour is totally different in person and in real pictures (same goes for most of the colours actually).

I get the same on PC (this is a flash object), but when you click exterior and interior colour chart it is the lighter blue (jpeg), as previously mentioned.
When using an iPad you only get the lighter blue (jpeg) version. This is most likely a render issue, but I do like to think the lighter blue will become available ... |
