Ninety-Five Percent Of The Magic.

Limited isn't the warm-up trim. The diff, the tires, and the full 228 hp are all here โ€” the only thing above it is track hardware most Sundays never touch.

What Limited Includes

The good stuff comes standard.

  • Torsen limited-slip differential โ€” the piece that makes a rear-drive car feel honest coming off a corner
  • Michelin Pilot Sport 4s from the factory โ€” no tire upgrade needed on day one
  • The high-revving 228-hp boxer, rear-drive balance, and your choice of 6MT or automatic
  • Heated seats โ€” because the fun one can still be liveable

The Honest Trade-Off

It's a sports car. That's the deal.

  • Nobody needs a BRZ โ€” that's the whole point, and we won't pretend otherwise
  • It's low, it's firm, it's two doors โ€” the fun one next to the family hauler, not instead of it
  • What it doesn't have is the tS track hardware โ€” which only matters if your calendar has actual track days on it

Step Down? Step Up?

Step down?

There isn't one โ€” Limited is where the 2026 BRZ starts, and the entry point already includes the parts enthusiasts actually argue about: the Torsen diff, the Michelins, the full 228 hp, and the manual if you want it. Nothing here is a decontented teaser โ€” this is the complete sports car out of the box.

Step up?

tS at $38,360 โ€” $2,500 for STI-tuned dampers and a Brembo braking system with 4-piston fronts. Be honest about your calendar first: that's hardware you'll only feel at eight-tenths. If track days are real and recurring, it's a bargain โ€” cheaper to buy upfront than to build later. If "track day" is an aspiration, Limited is 95% of the experience and the $2,500 stays in your pocket. We'll say that to your face, too.

No pressure either way โ€” we make the same honest recommendation whether you spend $35,860 or $38,360.

Every 2026 BRZ Trim

Questions People Actually Ask.

The questions buyers ask right before they decide on this trim.

Is the BRZ Limited worth it?

It isn't the warm-up trim โ€” the entry point already includes the parts enthusiasts actually argue about. At $35,860 starting MSRP you get the Torsen limited-slip differential, Michelin Pilot Sport 4s from the factory, the high-revving 228-hp boxer, rear-drive balance, your choice of 6MT or automatic, and heated seats.

Does the BRZ Limited come with a limited-slip differential?

Yes โ€” the Torsen limited-slip diff is standard, and it's the piece that makes a rear-drive car feel honest coming off a corner. The Michelin Pilot Sport 4s are factory-fitted too, so there's no tire upgrade needed on day one. This is the complete sports car out of the box rather than a decontented teaser.

BRZ Limited vs tS โ€” do I need the track hardware?

Be honest about your calendar. The tS at $38,360 starting MSRP adds $2,500 of STI-tuned dampers and a Brembo braking system with 4-piston fronts โ€” hardware you'll only feel at eight-tenths. If track days are real and recurring it's a bargain. If "track day" is an aspiration, the Limited is 95% of the experience.

Is the BRZ Limited practical enough as a daily driver?

With honest expectations. It's low, it's firm, it's two doors โ€” the fun one next to the family hauler, not instead of it. Heated seats and the automatic option make it more liveable than its reputation suggests. Nobody needs a BRZ; that's the whole point, and we won't pretend otherwise to make a sale.
