Subaru Introduces 2015 BRZ Series Blue Special Edition
2015 Subaru BRZ Series Blue is the special edition version of the acclaimed purist sports car. The model will be produced in limited run of only 1000 examples exclusively for the United States. This BRZ embodies an exclusive combination of STI functional aerodynamic body design, black-painted STI 17-inch wheels and unique interior trim. What is more, Subaru announced that it will offer 500 numbers of the car painted WR Blue Pearl and 500 in Crystal White Pearl. The special edition will arrive in dealerships in July.
BRZ Series Blue is driven by 200 horsepower (147 kW) 2.0-liter BOXER engine. It features low vehicle weight, an ultra-low center of gravity and precision steering. A boosts in car's aerodynamic performance is achieved via the black STI front, side, and side-rear under spoilers, which contribute to additional front downforce.
Furthermore, the additional underbody panels reduce the coefficient of drag (Cd) from 0.28 to 0.27. Larger stainless steel exhaust tips and a new shark fin antenna are also included. Red-finish brake calipers can be seen behind the spokes of the black painted STI wheels, which emphasize BRZ's pure sports nature.
This special edition vehicle is built on the BRZ Limited model but features exclusive trim and special details throughout. Inside, its leather and Alcantara upholstery includes blue leather seat bolsters and head restraints. Blue stitching highlights 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 same blue motif can also be seen on the center console kneepads and door trim that are further accentuated by an embroidered silver BRZ logo on the front seatbacks. Carpeted floor mats with BRZ logo and blue stitching, frameless day/night rear-view mirror and simulated carbon fiber center dash panel, red illuminated engine start/stop button with an STI logo round out the special interior treatment.
