What Makes the Subaru BRZ Murasaki Stand Out?
July 28 2025,
Subaru continues to fuel the passion of driving enthusiasts with the launch of a truly exclusive version of its beloved sports coupe: the 2025 Subaru BRZ Murasaki. Limited to just 100 units across Canada, this special edition is tailor-made for purists looking for sharp performance wrapped in bold, unmistakable style. Inspired by the BRZ tS, the Murasaki edition carries forward its key mechanical components while introducing a unique visual identity.
A Design That Turns Heads
The BRZ Murasaki stands apart from the moment you lay eyes on it, thanks to its exclusive Galaxy Purple Pearl exterior—a rich, deep finish that lives up to its name (Murasaki means “purple” in Japanese). It’s complemented by subtle side graphics, a sleek gloss black rear spoiler, and 10-spoke 18-inch silver-finish alloy wheels, giving the car a striking, athletic look without going over the top.
Performance That Stays True to the BRZ Spirit
At its core, the BRZ Murasaki is all about the joy of driving. It’s powered by a 2.4L naturally aspirated SUBARU BOXER® 4-cylinder engine, producing 228 horsepower, paired exclusively with a short-throw 6-speed manual transmission. The car’s rear-wheel drive layout and low centre of gravity deliver the precise handling and balance that BRZ fans know and love.
Based on the BRZ tS, the Murasaki is also equipped with performance upgrades, including high-performance Brembo brakes with gold-painted calipers, and front dampers by Hitachi-Astemo. These enhancements increase confidence and control—on twisty backroads or the occasional track day.
A Refined and Purposeful Interior
Inside, the BRZ Murasaki combines sportiness with subtle sophistication. The seats are upholstered in a mix of black leather and Ultrasuede, accented with grey contrast stitching that extends to the door panels and dashboard. A Murasaki Edition badge sits just ahead of the gear shifter, reminding you this is no ordinary BRZ. While performance takes centre stage, comfort and premium touches haven’t been overlooked.
Enhanced Rigidity, Courtesy of STI
To take cornering performance even further, Subaru engineers have added a flexible STI V-brace under the hood. This component minimizes chassis flex during aggressive manoeuvres, resulting in sharper turn-in and improved handling response. It’s a subtle addition that makes a meaningful difference for drivers who enjoy pushing the limits.
Ultra-Rare, Highly Collectible
Priced at $39,295, the 2025 BRZ Murasaki delivers tremendous value for a limited-run performance coupe with genuine motorsport-inspired upgrades. With only 100 units available nationwide, it’s expected to be in high demand among collectors and Subaru enthusiasts alike.
A Special Edition That Gets the Formula Just Right
The Subaru BRZ Murasaki doesn’t try to reinvent the BRZ—it elevates it. With a carefully curated blend of distinctive styling, precise technical upgrades, and exclusive production numbers, it’s a rare opportunity to own a piece of Subaru performance history.
