BRZ will be shown at the Philadelphia Auto Show - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

dbagdbag · 01-16-2012, 04:56 PM

I'll hop in the FR-S and join you

Zaku · 01-16-2012, 04:56 PM

no answer yet, because it's a holiday today. Seems like only NY and PA autoshow is confirmed to have FRS and BRZ. Not sure on the FRS at the PA show. No word from anyone on DC and Houston.

From what Switch has been saying I think both Subaru and Toyota is trying to hype the car more so they can increase the price on the car near release date. BUT! If the price is incorrect I guess most people would be veered away from purchasing the car and buy something else within that price range.

I don't know what to think of the situation. lol Other than wait and see...

If the train takes you to 30th street station...

-Take the eastbound trolley ($2) to 13th street station
-A google map (or smartphone) should be able to show you where the convention center is. Philly is a grid pattern so it should be easy to find. PM me if you want my number for further help/help on the day of the show.

Going on the 29th, anyone feel free to hit me up if you'll be there that day or if any non-locals need advice on the area just shoot me a PM.

Thanks I'll keep it in mind but I haven't decided the date to go. Definitely considering the 29th if I can get off work. I hope the one shown in philly is the galaxy blue we saw in NJ, love WRNII blue but I want to see in another blue or RED>.<!

fistpoint · 01-16-2012, 10:09 PM

What number or email are you folks using to contact Subaru for an answer? I'd rather ask myself and report back instead of asking someone here every other day

Probably will be that one. Seems like all the ones spotted so far were blue. The picture from CES in Vegas was the Jersey car too. It is being shipped all over the place.

This.

If anything the Chevy Code 130R concept shows other companies are looking how the AS1 does. There will be more competition in the upcoming years. I don't need/want the AS1 that badly if it is over priced.

Any word on the baltimore show? DC is going on at the same time as philly, so I don't think it'll be present. Baltimore is a week later, so I'm hopeful for that one.

Plus I'm out of town the weekend of the DC one.

+1 I have a number in my head that will make me turn elsewhere, but I'm not gonna put it here. I'm convinced there's a person at SoA with the sole responsibility of reading my posts in order to adjust the MSRP of the BRZ.

More likely Toyota and Subaru just waiting for the other to make the first move. If the Scion is too costly, I'll just get the BRZ due to more standard features. Even though that sorta doesn't make sense...

Zaku · 01-17-2012, 12:32 PM

Paranoid too much? Longhorn buddy? And no reply from subaru on my mail box yet

I noticed you won the first86. Im from Gaithersburg as well. I'll prob be going to Gaithersburg Fitzmall or Herb Gordon silver spring if your interested in doing a group buy.

I'm trying to artificially inflate the tin foil hat market so that I can short it on the market and make a killing when the bottom drops out.
