Anyone hear any new info on delivery dates in our area? There was talk of BRZ deliveries as soon as 5/15, but now it sounds like that was a miscommunication to some dealers.

i think it was a typo. 5/15 seems way too early for people in the midwest. someone just took delivery in seatle. i'm going to guess that it will take at least a week before transportation trucks get here. the end of the month is probably a more realistic delivery date.

I agree, my sales person is still saying mine has an ETA of the 27th. I'm just hoping they'll surprise me and it will show up sooner.

I've negoatiated the best deal I think I'm going to get on financing, and I'm going to push for them to give me a value on my trade in next week sometime.

Either way, it looks like you'll get your BRZ first Neutron, then it'll be a duel to see if my FR-S gets here before ayau's BRZ.

It's on amigo!

[ayau]

Just called soa. Still no vin and eta.

It was a " bonus lottery car" as the gm had to say.

I am #3 at BP Subaru. Ayau, are you an employee (Or ex-employee at BP)? Bruce told me that one of the people ahead of me on the list was. Maybe it's whoever is #1, which would make the most sense.

I got an email from a SOA rep yesterday saying there is no VIN for me yet either. I imagine we'll get ours around the same time. I hope I dont get mine a month after you do.

never worked at brooklyn park before. i'm guessing that would be the #1 person on the list. maybe i should have pre-ordered with burnsville like i had originally intended.

[ayau]

oh yeah, i'm going to need to remind BP to not drill holes on the front bumper.

[neutron256]

Okay now that west coast BRZs are being delivered the next couple of weeks are going to be even more frustrating.

Do we have a compiled list of what the preordered lists look like? I think I'm 5 at BP and 3 at burnsville. I would try amd make one but too difficult on my droid.

there's a pre-order database in the main forum somewhere. there isn't one specifically for MN though.

i think neutron256 is the only one with a VIN and ETA for MN right now.

Wanted to let you guys know there is a Black BRZ at Morries Brooklyn Park. I dont know how long it's going to be there so you may want to call if you're heading over.

I got to sit in it, take pics, etc. I'll write up thoughts later today

Did you get to drive it? Is this a demo or preproduction car? I might stop by tomorrow if it's still there.

It's a pre-production unfortunately and I did not get to drive it.

Overall I was very impressed with it. At least in the limited ways I got to judge. Sadly, I think the car was only going to be there a few hours at the most.

[Starscream15]

Ayau, did you get a call from BP Subaru yet? You are #2, right?

I got a call with a delivery date of June 11th-ish. Going to call SOA Monday and make sure there is a VIN allocated. Getting excited
