2019 Subaru BRZ Series.Gray

The 2019 BRZ Series.Gray combined Cool Gray Khaki paint with the Limited grade, six-speed manual and Performance Package in a 250-car US programme. Its chassis equipment makes it more specific than a regular BRZ simply wearing a grey finish.

The 2019 identity was announced in September 2018

Subaru of America’s pricing announcement identifies the model as the 2019 BRZ Series.Gray and gives a 250-car production reference. This is the BRZ programme, separate from the 750 WRX and 250 WRX STI Series.Gray allocations. Sharing a campaign name and colour does not make the three cars one mechanical specification or a set of duplicate aliases. The coupe’s model year, US market and underlying Limited-based configuration establish its own boundary.

The manual drivetrain is explicitly part of the specification

The manufacturer says Series.Gray is based on the Limited equipped with the six-speed manual and Performance Package. The same release gives the manual BRZ a 205 hp 2.0-litre boxer and Torsen limited-slip differential. The optional automatic’s lower output belongs to the broader model range and should not be assigned indiscriminately to this manual-only edition. For a current car, original transmission and engine documents should remain separate from any subsequent tuning or replacement work.

The Performance Package brings concrete chassis changes

Subaru describes Brembo four-piston front and two-piston rear braking hardware, SACHS performance dampers and the package’s 17-inch wheel specification. These parts explain why the complete edition deserves more than a colour-only description. They also need service context: tyres, pads and dampers can be replaced over time. A collector file should distinguish original specification, documented maintenance and later modifications rather than treating a current brand name or wheel colour as conclusive authentication.

Colour and cabin details extend the programme identity

Cool Gray Khaki is paired with black-finish wheels, Crystal Black Silica mirrors and black badging. Inside, the source identifies Grand Luxe trim on the upper door areas and instrument visor, red stitching and a frameless mirror. Those details provide a broader checklist than exterior paint alone. Original sales documentation should connect the chassis with Series.Gray, supported by photographs of trim and mechanical equipment and an honest record of any later changes.

The supplied launch image now resolves the photo hold

The factory-distributed image accompanies the original 2019 BRZ announcement and depicts the Cool Gray Khaki presentation. It is retained with the publisher’s editorial-use terms and manufacturer credit, without replacing it with another grey BRZ generation. SUB-186 was held, not imported, in the previous review. The photograph supports appearance, while the 250-car boundary and manual Performance Package specification come from the dated factory text rather than an image-based chassis census.

Specifications and identity reference

Rarity and production scope

The factory reference is 250 US BRZ Series.Gray cars for model year 2019, expressly based on the manual Limited with Performance Package. WRX and WRX STI Series.Gray allocations are separate and are not added as BRZs or aliases. The previously held original-Verified row is newly imported with a matched launch image. Exact completed production and survivor totals remain blank rather than inferred from the attributed manufacturer cap.
