It was Jacob Toyota Wodonga.

Servicing: BRZ at Toyota / 86 at Subaru

Can anyone foresee any issues/problems with servicing either the 86 or BRZ at the opposite brand's dealership etc?

-Warranty?
-Parts?
-Tools?
-Mechanic's attitude?
-Loyalty?
-Prices?

Would an online sales work?
Lower the overheads, don't have to build a big shiny dearlership?
Just have a warehouse and workshop, book a test drive online and a salesman comes to you in the car?

Same probably goes for spare parts too, especially as most stuff won't be commonly stocked for other Toyotas, i.e. Oil Filters, Air Filters, Clutches, Coolant? Brake pads/rotors ?
