New for 2016, the BRZ receives standard rear vision camera. The Series.HyperBlue BRZ cabin features an exclusive design scheme. The leather and Alcantara upholstery includes Hyper blue leather seat bolsters and head restraints. Blue stitching accents the seats and the blue and black leather-wrapped steering wheel, as well as the shift lever boot and leather-wrapped parking brake handle. The blue motif carries to the center console kneepads and door trim, accented by an embroidered silver BRZ logo on the front seatbacks. Carpeted floor mats also pick up the BRZ logo and blue stitching. The exterior continues the Series.HyperBlue theme with 17-inch black alloy wheels, black glossy badging and painted black finish exterior mirrors.

Looks like a less impressive version of 2015 series blue. No lipkit or STI wheels.

I thought the new Subaru corporate head unit doesn't fit in the brz dash. Since 2016s are already here, I guess final refresh for 2017 will have it standard.

The Corporate STARLINK head unit comes in a 6.2 or 7.0 inch. The 7.0 inch units are usually equipped on higher-trimmed models and has more multimedia features. The 6.2 unit seems best for the BRZ since owners don't necessarily need the multimedia stuff.

Wonder if this will be available in New England this time?
Should be cheaper the the Blue Series as it does not have the STI aero kit or wheels.
