2017 BRZ wait time
 

Just special-ordered a limited with performance package. Dealer told me 10-12 weeks. Just got an email saying the estimated arrival will be the last week of August (19 weeks from now).

Someone please tell me I won't be waiting 19 weeks...

:(

Well... they first have to make a Scion FRS, paint it and badge it. It's only then the Subaru engineers are allowed near it, they are offered the challenge to convert the FRS into a BRZ but they're not given any help hence it takes 19 weeks to find all FRS badges/referencing and replace with BRZeee stuff.


Enjoy the wait as it makes the end reward all the better and also enjoy your free time as when you get her you'll soon begin your quest to "improve" it.. which will occupy all of your free time..

The 2018s will be coming out by the time I get this stupid car. :<

That's a whole new area for procrastination... "do I wait for the 2018 or buy the current model?". I don't think the 2018 will come or if it does it won't be what we know and love.. 'It's Life, Jim, but not as we know it'.

I ordered my BRZ in March and got an e-mail the next day saying the end of May. I just called Subaru yesterday and they said it should arrive 2nd week of May. So hopefully your experience is the same where the e-mail gives you the worst case scenario but it actually arrives sooner.

It seems to be taking about two months or less. That is very low. I waited almost 4 months. Spike on here waited like 40 years.

Mine took exactly six weeks from order to delivery (two weeks ago) after an initial forecast of nine. Of course, there are less than two miles of land between my dealership and Japan. Inland delivery (to Chicago) might well take longer, but surely not 13 weeks.

You may want to do an inventory search on Cars.com. My dealer in Northern California said a new order would be 6-8 weeks, but I found a car in transit to a dealer in Southern California that is due to arrive the first week of May. Getting it for $300 below invoice, too!

Don't you feel bad taking $300 from the car dealer?

search cargurus for the color you want, frankly there's nothing else to pick all PP are limited. So what color are you wanting? I just bought mine off the lot then shipped it to me.

That was the initial offer from their internet department. I assume they have volume incentives that offset the low price. I'm not complaining.

I ordered my BRZ w/PP mid November and received it exactly on schedule at the end of January. There is a whole thread of us tracking the delivery of the 2017s with performance package.

Here in Europe the average delivery time is 4 mounths :\
I ordered in middle August and received 27th December

I didn't see that. My bad.

Which color are you after?

I had sent an e-mail to SoA last week after they were closed. I then remembered to call them yesterday and they had told me 2nd week of May. Just now I got an e-mail response and it says last week of April. The e-mail does say I should check with the dealer because dates are only estimates and can change.

Seems odd that it would somehow move up 2-3 weeks so I am guessing the person I spoke to on the phone is correct. But I will be calling the dealer for sure tomorrow!

Man, I didn't think people were still ordering the car... There are so many around me. The local stealerships have a bunch of those yellow bananas just sitting around.

At the time, I couldn't find one with exactly what I wanted anywhere within 300+ miles of me.

White. But I don't mind waiting since I am moving and don't need it yet, nor do I have anywhere to put it right now. If it arrives in two months that will be perfect. I just hope it isn't three or four.

The guy at the dealer seems to think it will be sooner than 19 weeks.

Yeah, go check out that Delivery in January thread. You sound exactly like I did ordering my White w/ PP in Jan and seeing an 'end of May' timeline. Mine came middle of March, almost exactly 2 months after ordering and 2 months before the estimated date. SoA phone call in about a month will reveal the good news (hopefully).

Ah ok, so there's no rush then...

I became old man, like @Tcoat :lol:

:slap:

It's starting to get a bit musky in here ...

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww................

This is my favorite online community because you guys can turn a tame thread into a gif of old people punching each other. I love you all.

The latest for me is I spoke to the dealer today and my BRZ should be arriving in early May.

Order History:
Order placed March 21st. Dealer thought 6-8 weeks.
SoA email the next day said late May delivery

My order was placed Feb 27th. Delivery date is late June.:bonk:

I am in the same boat, Just ordered mine on 4/20 and the eta from SOA is last week of August. The salesperson I worked with at the dealership told me 2-3 months. So I hope end of August is the latest it will arrive.

Just emailed SoA. They replied that delivery date is still June. :cry:

Not sure about your region but here the 18s should start rolling in around mid July. Your 17 could conceivably come in with a shipment of the 18s!

Interesting but there hasn't been any information on the 2018 model has there? My location is Minnesota, USA

Inconceivable!

Ordered mine on 4/5, just got the 2nd email from Subaru giving me an ETA of 5/12 after initially telling me the last week of May. I'm in TX, maybe being near the gulf helps? Excited!!

Sweet! I just got my email last night as well. Originally they had told me last week of May as well and now it will arrive in a week or so.

What color? Seems some of them have much longer ETAs than others. My red was estimated in May but I ordered way back in early Feb.
