I'm surprised too, looks to me like a teaser of the STi, or at least I hope so! I'll order the day it's announced if it's this car.

Dealers get charged for every enquiry made on a car on Carsales. I'm going to try make $10,000 work of enquiries on the one above, that will teach them. :P

Not to mention in a brand new and still tight engine.

I agree, the dealer wants to sell cars and a lot of them seem to think letting you thrash the absolute crap out of a car is some strange way...

Not sure to be honest, I can't remember what the GTS looks like, maybe similar, I prefered the GTS interior to the BRZ until I saw this one with the paneling.

I guess it's just in. The bits that are missing, mainly sat nav, mats, that's about it?

Don't know about down there but my two local dealers wanted a deposit.

Also I'm reluctant to waste people's valuable time (and my own) when I had no intention of buying the 86 over a BRZ.
