It also says Sport on the back, obviously, and I chose this particular one because it's dark blue metallic and this is the only model that Subaru offers the dark blue metallic paint color. If you come to the front, the sports car also offers you the black grille, the black surrounds for the LED fog lights and a little more orange at the bottom of the bumper and the hood is white because we have not taken the protective material. Outside of this, we just received this car.
You'll see here on the front, the Forester Sport also has LED fog lights and LED turn signals integrated into the rearview mirrors on the inside of the seats that are on the Forester Sport. They are unique, here they are a cloth material similar to the seats you would get at a premium price, but then the side bolsters are vinyl with orange contrast stitching, you have similar materials and color combinations on the dash doors. orange stitching here as well as the anodizing, let me show you this one, the anodized orange type vent covers and then down here you have the anodized orange part and now the X mode is a little bit sporty for lack of a better term and for tent sports , I have a couple of different modes.
