I put deposits on both a BRZ and a 86 and planned to take whichever came in first. That turned out to be the 86. I might have preferred the BRZ suspension, plus it seems right that the car be badged a Subaru since they manufacture it and supply the majority of its parts. But I much prefer the look of the 86’s front end, as well as it’s grey interior stripes instead of red (too boy racer for me).

To me, the BRZ front end makes the color choice on that car more significant. I personally don’t like white or red on the BRZ but think they work great on the 86.

All of a long way of saying that to me the silver is a great color on the BRZ. It makes more of a difference on that car than any color makes on the 86.

I much prefer BRZ front, I don't get all the hate. And you are right Silver is perfect color for this Boxer Engine car. (But I don't think you can make this car look bad in any colors). The car is so photogenic. Also Ice Silver is not getting enough love around here.

After getting the car, professionally, detailed and paint corrected last Thursday today I went over it with a sealant, I just can’t get the paint to look any better than it does right now it is as glossy and shiny as it can be.

Hadn't thought of doing monochrome shots with mine. Looks fantastic.

Thank you. Now I see why everyone is replacing the side marker with a JDM one. The car looks so much better with a clear marker. I think I will blank them out with a smoke overlay for now and replace them some day. My wife was already giving me a side eye when I bought the ducktail for it.

Very nice looking BRZ @grembal! Congrats and welcome to the forum! What convinced you to move on from the Miata?

You can achieve gloss my friend.

Mostly just wanted something more comfortable for long drives - the miata was kinda miserable to be in in that regard. I could have gotten softer springs and a more comfortable seat for it but at the end of the day it was still a noisy tin can . With the BRZ I get much of the fun of an na/nb with more creature comforts. Still love miatas though and may end up buying another in a few years

It's great that you found a car that offers the fun driving experience of a Miata with added comfort for those long drives! What features do you appreciate the most in the BRZ that make it more comfortable than the Miata for extended trips?

 

[grembal]

Seats that I can actually recline, a better insulated cabin (although it's expectedly not luxury car quiet), a stereo that I can actually hear + android auto - my standards are admittely low, but this car strikes a nice middle ground between a roadster/coupe and a sedan or hatchback.

Here's some great photos of the new BRZ in Ice Silver Metallic. If you see more photos be sure to add them below.

I am happy with my Ice Silver, I originally wanted a white but silver is much classier.
