The Subaru BRZ is known for providing the ultimate thrill at an affordable price with a rear-wheel-drive configuration. However, an enthusiast in Dubai has created a bonkers one-off BRZ called the Red Dragon.
This exclusive BRZ Red Dragon has been customised by FOS Concept for its owner Marwan Al Khaja. He is also part of GCC’s largest Toyota GT86 and BRZ community – 86 Club. Let’s start the mods breakdown of this one-off BRZ starting with the exterior upgrades.
Exterior
The Red Dragon looks menacing and uses a complete carbon-fibre body. These include:
- StreetHunter GR86/BRZ Carbon Wide Body kit
- StreetHunter Carbon Vented hood & Carbon GT Wing
- Elite Series LED Tail Lights, Alphaflex LED Headlights
- Rexpeed Carbon Mirrors
- Selbon Carbon Trunk & Roof

Apart from the performance upgrades on the engine, it has also been given a make-over too. These include:
