April order dates

[Elgancho]

Has anyone who order a BRZ in April already received your car or an ETA?

[roddy]

I ordered mine on April 17th. It should have been here this week, but the union for CP rail was on strike recently, and my car has been delayed for another couple of weeks.

I ordered 3-13-12 and have nothing, let alone April orders

[phillig]

April 10 and nothing yet.

Just got another update on mine, ordered april 16th. Still wait listed. The owner of my dealership called SOA and they told him that since I ordered GBS it takes longer as they are producing fewer batches of those. SOA told him that I can expect at the earliest, mid July and worst case mid August.

Ya I ordered 3-19 and haven't got squat yet.

I ordered 4/2 and still wait listed. The dealer is in the dark and when I called SOA and they gave me no info. That due to the numerous options and variables they couldn't even give me an estimate of blank weeks since you ordered is the normal. Very frustrating I can't even imagine how the guys that ordered in march with no info feel

[makalaka]

I ordered second week of March and my dealer is saying it might not come until October

[baadshah]

ordered in 1st week of april and my dealer told me its not coming this month either and "might" have an "date" next month. Funny part is guy who ordered 2nd got his within a month. Talked to SOA many times and came to a conclusion that the whole preorder thing is a farce. Its like a lottery to get your trim. You will be better off not ordering it but directly go and pick one.

I ordered march 20 and my car currently is among the next 50 cars to be built in the factory, so Id say april cars are up coming up soon

How exactly would you have this kind of info?

[Sonex51]

I'm 3/5 for my dealership. #1 ordered 31 March and took delivery last Monday (the 4th). #2 is scheduled for delivery no later than the 20th, but I'm not sure when they ordered.

Sadly I ordered late (4 May), but I've been told to anticipate early - mid July.

Was told by my sales rep. He said that my car status went from waitlist to in production which naturally asked what that meant and he pretty much told me that my car is going to be among the next 50 to be built so a VIN will be assigned soon,

How do you think the March ordered WRB Premiums feel? -_-

Wonder how he would know if it's the next 50, and since the VIN isn't assigned till it gets to the US shores, it wouldn't be soon so much as in a while! Just how I'd interpret that information I guess.

Seems like batches of 50 would be small. I'd love to know how they really do that at the factory, anyone got an insider that could fill us in?

ordered on march 15th i think. my car should be here next week! WRB premium 6mt.

Ordered 4/2, #1 order, and haven't heard anything. May call SOA later to check. Dealer has a Premium (Satin White Pearl) and Limited (Sterling Silver) both in Automatic in transit according to the inventory on the website....

So much for their "You'll be the first to get yours!" :p

This is some of the stuff I can't stand, and you know the dealer doesn't really care either. They'll just shrug and say, "Well, someone else will buy it." The dealer I'm getting mine from is allocated 4, mine and someone elses are already taken. The kicker? Both his and mine don't have an ETA, but the other 2 are arriving in June and July and they're both not what I want. Color doesn't matter, I just want a Limited MT.

Same problem here in Atlanta. Initially I was 2 out of 6 and now 1 out of 7 (don't ask). I ordered a Limited WRB AT with no options on March 23rd. The first BRZ (silver) was delivered last week or so. Now a second one is on it's way, a Limited WRB AT with option package 1A. Suposedly the dealer can't give me this and said they won't know who it belongs to until they receive it. Sounds a little fishy.

Mine is still wait listed with no ETA.

Ordered a WRB Premium MT April 9th, but I was #13/20 at my dealership and am still waitlisted They already received a few ATs, but with the way this is looking I may switch my order to an FR-S in a couple days. They are far more readily available, and just about all dealers have cars on their lot or in transit.

I emailed subaru yesterday, they responded and said my car won't be here until October! I mentioned the fact that the dealer in Denver has two GBS coming in that are inventory cars with no pre-order, they didn't even care.

This pre-order thing is complete bullshit.

I think I'm just going to cancel and order a 2014 next year.

In Wyoming, October isn't exactly summer driving fun.

I'm definitely getting the feeling that this lining us up as pre-orders and taking our $500 to $1000 refundable or non-refundable deposits was a whole line of BS. This is the only car company I know of where allocations aren't modified to meet a customer's ordered specs. Dealerships should not be getting cars that aren't sold when there are ordered cars in the queue. If I knew what I know now, I never would have put down a deposit and "pre-ordered" one two months ago. I would be buying one from Houston or Atlanta where I have seen my spec available and waiting to be purchased.
