Looks so mean. Does anyone have any info on the front aero? It looks different than a regular BRZ. The brake vents (intakes?) look like they have LEDs on them, as well as a new crossmember. Is this part of the STi front underspoiler option listed in the Instagram post?
 
Unlike you, I'm cool! I drive fast late at night when I should be sleeping! But you wouldn't understand...

Is this the same as the Toyota Pavement Grey or is it slightly different?

Its really just a Charcoal Grey and I'm not a fan for the BRZ. Some dark colors tend to hide the sculpturing of a car. I think this is one of those colors.

Looking at the few photos of the Magnetite color here, some look clearly much darker than others. I looked at that color of a WRX STI on a dealer lot and it looked similar to the darker pics posted here. One problem in photographing a dark gray, especially up close, is that the camera’s light meter will try to “normalize” the dark area and it turns out looking more like the Kodak neutral gray in the middle of the tonal range. For me personally, the real life view of the color is too dark. I think I would prefer more of a titanium color. I will likely stick with the color of my 2017 BRZ, Crystal White Pearl. In dry New Mexico, dust is more of an issue than mud, and dust shows up much more on black or very dark colors. If you love washing your car, you can ignore this issue. (Also, I will likely put my 15-spoke STI rims (17x7.5) on the white 2022. I love those rims.). For fun, look up Magnetite on Wiki and you can see a nice photo of a specimen of this mineral.

I also live in New Mexico. The Crystal White Pearl maybe the logical practical color due to the strong sun but I still am a fan of either the Ice Silver Metallic or the WR Blue pearl. I think both colors really show off the curves of this car.

Do you think the silver stands out from other silver cars? Sure, WR Blue is nice, but I always think of WRX’s when I see that color. Do you currently have a BRZ or still shopping?

No I'm still shopping. I have a 2017 Fiat 500 Abarth in a color very similar to Neptune Blue. Due to the fact I live in Santa Fe and I'm at 7000 feet I felt version 1 of the BRZ/86 would really suffer from the altitude due to the torque curve dip. The Abarth is not all that powerful but it is a turbo and does have very good mid range torque. The new BRZ virtually eliminates the dip and max torque is at 3700 RPM makes this car a viable option to buy now.

For me, the often mentioned dip has not been much of an issue, even driving up to Sandia crest, over 10,000 ft. I think it becomes an issue more for those taking it to a track. The high RPM peak on the pre-2022 is a bit misleading since it reaches almost the same peak before the dip. In Santa Fe, I think the BRZ might be best as a 2nd car, having an AWD for the snow and ice.

Is there any particular reason why you prefer the BRZ over the GR86?

Mainly I’m just a Subaru guy. I bought the first Forester when they came out in 1998, my last MT car. Then I got the Forester XT with AT in 2004 when they introduced the turbo (still have it). Then came my 2017 BRZ Limited with STI rims. But I also prefer the grill on the 2022 BRZ vs the 86.

Yes I agree. But maybe its my age but the BRZ has a more sophisticated less "boy racer" look than the GR86.

Ha! Maybe my age too! I have no desire to be the old man in the red sports car, even though it doesn’t look bad. I would pay extra for something like the Porsche Chalk color. Check it out. If I demand that, I must buy a Porsche at about $68K.
