Limited-edition Subaru Kiwi coupe adopts new moniker, BRZ Tsubasa

The Tsubaru BRZ tS models have made a comeback in New Zealand, but with a news name and exciting upgrades. Subaru of NZ has renamed 10 limited-run Subaru BRZ tS models as Tsubasa, a Japanese word that means 'wings'.

The Tsubasa models are a special edition, designed to set the BRZ models apart a bit more. Each of these models comes equipped with a host of unique features, making them stand out in the crowd.

Unique Features of the Tsubasa Models

The Tsubasa models are fitted with 18-inch dark grey metallic alloy wheels and use 215/40 R18 Michelin Pilot 4 tyres for superior performance on the road. The models also boast Brembo brakes with gold painted 4-piston front callipers and 2-piston rear callipers, along with larger pads and rotors compared to the standard models, ensuring optimal stopping power.

In terms of design, the new badge for the Tsubasa models incorporates the letters of the former 'tS' name, giving it a distinctive look. The models come in WR Blue, adding to their appeal. Each Tsubasa model comes with a numbered presentation key box and an engraved key ring as a special touch.

Aligning with Subaru's Special Editions

The Tsubasa models align with previous Subaru special editions like the WRX Todoroki, demonstrating Subaru's commitment to offering unique and exciting models to its customers. The models also feature STI-tuned front and rear dampers, further enhancing their performance capabilities.

What's Next?

Subaru of NZ is working on another special-edition BRZ, set to arrive late this year. Inchcape (Subaru importer for NZ) plans to share news about the next limited-edition Subaru BRZ in the coming months, so keep an eye out for updates.

It's worth noting that the Tsubasa models were all pre-sold before they arrived in New Zealand, indicating a high demand for these special models. The next limited edition special model of the Subaru BRZ, however, has not been specified in the available search results.

In conclusion, the Tsubasa models offer a unique blend of style, performance, and exclusivity, making them an attractive option for Subaru enthusiasts in New Zealand. Whether you're a fan of the brand or just looking for a high-performance car, the Tsubasa models are definitely worth considering.
