That sounds about right. I was given an estimate of July, but not sure about it since I'm going for the Special Edition

Same here, I ordered the special edition as well. Hopefully, it is only 2k more than the sport tech model.

If the dealer's info is correct, I am surprised there is no news or update from the Japanese website on this special edition model.

Saw an 15 STI today, dealer confirmed it was indeed Crystal White Pearl. Definitely a whiter color.

Vancouver, BC

Depending on what the special edition includes, if 4k more for:
- Front lip
- Side skirt
- Rear skirt
- Diff spoiler
- Sti headrest
- Frameless mirror
- Knee Pads
- Blue stitch seats

I will switch back to the Sport Tech.

Really hoping it is not 4k more since the FRS 1.0 with TRD body kit, exhaust, spring, thicker steering wheels + all the limited features = under 30k usd. Also, the FRS US price is very close to CDN price.

Lets hope is either less than 2k difference or 4k with more features (ie: larger rear shaft, spec C lateral trailing arms...etc). I must be dreaming. =P

This is end of june delivery for a 2015?

I guess they were right about production starting on May 7th.

If the 15's are going to be hitting the NA showrooms in June/July, that would explain the price drop on a 14 WRB at my local dealer.

@M-17

Remember when the car first came out, and SOME people were like OMG I don't want SWP I want a Whitey White BRZ and then now they have CWP that's WHITE and SOME people are like, OMG I like the creamy White, I want SWP. I'm just dying, at this irony. But I think it's a nice white, that silver is nice too.

I'm just wondering what the rims are and I'm not sure about the spoiler. We'll see next month when features and pricing are supposedly released.

I'll be surprised if it's 2k difference though.

MY2013 == A-type
MY2014 == B-type
MY2015 == C-type

On the passenger side door the sticker with your car code the 4th digit will tell you (i.e. ZC6Bxxx).
