You aren't in the US are you? It's a US Scion promotion/gimmick...

Hey no hate here. I just thought most people had come to a consensus. Doesn't really matter to me since I'll be buying a BRZ when it comes out. :party0030:

It might also be fun to see what color/ transmission you've selected.

I went with a manual and Firestorm Red. How about you?

Personally though, I'm still waffling between the FR-S and the BRZ, but if I get picked for this, then the FR-S it will be!

White/Manual. I was torn between that and asphalt.

Hot Lava/Manual for me.

I wonder if, more than just determining the sales price information and demand, the main reason for doing this is to get some manual to automatic ratios?

They will probably be skewed manual with this data, but they would take that into account.

I signed up as well and chose White/Manual.

If you read all of the fine print you will have noticed a part where they discussed that the drawings will not be from a giant pool of entrants from across the US but instead from smaller pools based upon region. My guess is to ensure that they get spread as evenly as possible.

I signed up for an ultramarine/manual.

I was already going to put $500 down on the car so whatever. If it costs too much I'll just walk away like I was planning on in the first place.

Ultramarine and manual for me. Finally got all signed up, was trying to do it from work and the page wasn't updating, finally refreshed it on the right page and got to it. :P I'm hopeful!

I signed up but know I won't get picked because I already put in a deposit. I'm skeptical enough to think that matters. No way they're going to give me one when they could get money from someone else.

+1 on the page being terrible, took lots of tries in order to make it work.

carbonBLUE 01-12-2012 02:40 PM

i tried signing up but i get that loading ring.... keeps spinning...

Syldrin 01-12-2012 02:41 PM

i just hope we get leaked the price.

White manual, man. We think alike on every thread, have the same taste in cars, and pretty much always agree... Are we related? :lol:

MRZ415 01-12-2012 02:50 PM

NOT me... reason being they did not state what free goodies you'll get
if the first 86 gets a full TRD body kit then YES I am in ... but it did not state
that anywhere ...

Alot of people signing up will inform Scion that alot of people want this car..
They will be able to price the car at a higher selling point if alot of people sign up
and drive up interest on the vehicle.
