Pics of a USDM Premium interior? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Grimlock · 02-19-2012, 02:33 PM

Based on what comes with the Limited package, I think the Premium model is right for me. But I realized I haven't seen many pics of a USDM Premium model at all, especially the interior. The best pic I could find is below, but it realy doesn't show me the seat material or stitching. Is the stitching red? Besides the cloth, are they otherwise identical to the Limited's seats?

BRZ Premium interior (from the Portland Auto Show):

Limited seats are Alcantra and leather on the outside around it, the premium seats are cloth stitching in the center and a harder microfiber cloth around the stitching they are red stitching.The best seat that are close to the Premium are the Civic Si seats. So if you've been in the 02-10 Civic Si, it's the same materials except the center silver stitching are very strong. They are very nice seats. We have more picture of them they are just all over the place atm, I'll go collect them in a bit here.

Civic Si seats are awesome. But if you are more than 36" waist you may start to get uncomfortable.

Thanks to Hanzo for Pics.

And now that I think about it do we really need another one of these thread I mean...the other thread that talked about Premium Cloth seat is the like 5th thread below this one. Pretty sure the two should get merged. Here's a Video too... did you try searching?

Couple things I had not noticed before.

The handy cell phone/iPod spot beside the shifter.

Are the climate control knobs identical to the FRS? I really like the look of them in the Limited but I'm only down for a Premium. Oh well...

What are the 3 vertically oriented buttons to the left of the gauges?

Thanks for the video. I did try searching, and I indicated such in my original post. Almost everything I found was about all of the different types of interiors the JDM cars were going to get, and nothing official about what was in the USDM car.

The cars I've seen in person were all Limiteds and every Subaru pic I've seen is a LImited as well. The Portland car is the only Premium I'm aware of that was at an auto show where a picture/video would tell me definitively what is in the USDM car before I order one. I hadn't seen the video of the Portland car, so thank you again for that.

No Problem there seems to be an Automatic Premium up in Pittsburgh right now. I was told from a friend up there that it wasn't the same car at Portland. I' was going to go up tomm, but I had some urgent work to do otherwise I go and do a review for everyone. Well have to wait for another show if it's near by I'll go to it, but they say cars are starting to arrive at dealers for Demo soon, so you might be able to catch a Premium in our area. I'll let you know in the MID A thread if I find anything.

Looks from the Limited pic that the cell phone spot I mentioned is actually the place where the heated seats controls are. I prefer the spot as a cell phone holder.

Sorry, thought you meant the temp gauges.

Those are the trip/computer reset buttons.
