Timeframe! When do you plan to purchase?

It's not out yet!

But

Just to generate some activity, and because of curiosity, When do you plan to purchase your Scion FR-S/Toyota FT-86/Subaru?

Subaru, if it's a Scion.
Edit: Wait, I have to see what the Subaru looks like and the feature in the car first. If it doesn't meet my expectation, I will just look for other car.

Don't know yet as I don't know specs or pricing info. My current car is still going strong so I am in no rush. If this comes out as Scion I will most likely lean towards Subaru if all else is equal. Too early to tell at this point.

There should be an ASAP option in that poll. Basically, whenever I can save up enough for a downpayment to keep my monthly payments at around $300...thats looking like ~$7-8k atm, off my estimated APR, and using a likely $25k purchase price after a few goodies are installed.

stickin' to a budget.

Gonna order mine as soon as that is possible to do so. IF the car does not cost too much and IF I have enough of a down that I feel I can comfortable buy the car. Otherwise I may wait. Of course I will want to test drive it first.

Definitely picking it up used as soon as i can. About to start college, can't afford a new car, and i am going to struggle justifying picking it up secondhand. If i was n a better situation though, i would buy it before they could get it to me

+1

Seeing a Scion badge definitely put things on the backburner. Curious to see the Subaru varient will look like or if it will even be available in the US.

Because there aren't really any other cars like this coming out, I think this will be what I'm going to get but I'll be waiting sometime since I don't exactly have money and I want to see how it turns out. If it's a little disappointing then maybe the refresh will be better. Probably will buy used unless some very good fortune comes my way

LOL @ backburner.
We have to see first. I really hope that Subaru brings its own version to the states, it will be a big hit.
I know if I say this, I might get flamed, but I'm also looking to forward to Mazda RX-7 revival. They have been developing new Rotary for years now, I don't think they abandon the project. I'm going to get a new car in late 2012 or early 2013, so there will probably be a few other alternatives.

LOL I don't buy lottery tickets...
God has many ways of bringing fortune though (I'm an atheist for the record)
