2015 Series.Blue BRZ
 
Thought I would start a new thread for owners and future owners of the Series.Blue. The other 2015 threads were getting kind of big.

I have a VIN number now and am waiting somewhat patiently for a few more weeks until it is ready to pickup and drive 1200 miles home from CO, to WA.

Stopped by the local dealer to look over the 14's again and laughed at the $4995 "local market adjustment" on top of MSRP. Asked when they would be getting any Series.Blue models in and the sales guy asked "series what?" After explaining what they were he said no, we still have too many 13 & 14's to sell first.

It will be interesting to see the geographical spread of where all the Series.Blue's end up. And how many will be owned by ft86club forum members :)

Whoa, you got a VIN number already? Where and what was the estimated time of delivery?

fungizmos 06-20-2014 03:08 AM

Heuburger Motors in CO, Estimate is July 15, but was warned it may be later towards the end of the month when most are scheduled to arrive.

Serial number is in the high 600's. Does anybody know if the VIN series is US distribution only, or does this include all worldwide 2015's

Rota 06-20-2014 03:17 AM

Pretty sure the three of us all ordered from Heuberger up in CO. I got my VIN earlier this week and am also in the high 600's. I'll hopefully be picking mine up when I get back from vacation on the 20th. I opted for the WRB.

Boss Paco 06-20-2014 03:50 AM

We have three coming to the dealership I work at. I just hate they painted the calipers instead of actually upgrading them. Shoulda left them alone IMHO.

Ours are also scheduled for mid July and have vins as well.

Jimmy45brz 06-20-2014 04:24 AM

I ordered mine from Heuberger Auto early this month,
I also got VIN number high 600's.
ETA end of July.

I personally love the world rally blue color.

x1UP 06-20-2014 09:52 AM

Wait, but guys...I ordered from them too and I got no updates....=/.

Did you guys ask for an update or did January/Eric email you guys?

EDIT: The only update I got was when I emailed them and told me an arrival estimate of my car arriving, which January said it was around July 21st-25th

GreenMonster 06-20-2014 10:15 AM

I picked blue... no more white cars for me...

Which one?

I like the old (2013,2014) WRB better :)

Nice, I ordered a WRB one from Nikki too, and will be bringing it back to Seattle.

Where's yours going?

Did they email you about the VIN or did you have to contact them?

Turbo95eg6 06-20-2014 12:55 PM

Everyone who wants a BRZ, already has one. I'm sure there is a handful waiting for the next generation, due out likely next year. I'm sure the sales will be low and be similar like the 10 series.

I don't really think that is true. And considering it is a "limited edition" you are right, sales will be like the 10 series in that every single one will be sold.

Your post has kind of a negative vibe but the manufacturer selling all their limited run cars seems positive...

They will email you the detail info of Series Blue BRZ

x1UP 06-21-2014 01:01 AM

Update: Got my VIN from January. Question though for you guys, I noticed in the email that she sent that there was the "option package 2" selected for the "standard model" of the Series.Blue.

Does anyone know what that is for the Series.Blue and if any of you also have that option selected?

fungizmos 06-21-2014 01:10 AM

Same here. I read what that was at one point, but can't find the page now.

Love that the dealer complained about having to get rid of their '13s and '14s while keeping the "local market adjustment" on them. Awesome dealership you've got there.

inertia 06-21-2014 12:46 PM

WRB all the way! White is too soft/feminine.

fungizmos 06-21-2014 01:23 PM

I just noticed several dealers starting to advertise 2015's with a mixture of Series.Blue and premium and limited versions.

If you do a google search for "2015 brz vin" several pop up at various dealers and show "in transit"

What is interesting is the regular 2015 serial numbers are mixed in with the Series.Blue with some in the teens that are just a Premium & Limited trims. I would have thought they would do all the Blues at once instead of mixing them up during production. Maybe they had one production line dedicated instead and were building concurrent.

Anyway fun to watch.

Those blue seats + STI would have a heavy influence for me to get the WRB. :happyanim:

Ezcompane 06-22-2014 11:24 PM

Anderson in Pensacola has a blue one listed on their site if anyone in the area has any interest.

Katapaltes 06-23-2014 01:37 AM

Sewell Subaru in Dallas has seven 2015 BRZs "in transit" and six of the seven are Series.Blue. They've had no 2014 models in inventory for a couple months now.

For those that ordered from Heuberger, any other email updates that they told you besides the ETA and VIN numbers?

Should we start expecting paperwork to be mailed out soon and etc?

Once your BRZ arrives, we'll get your paperwork into finance and sent out to you. Once we get the paperwork back, we'll get your BRZ scheduled to ship and shipped to you! :)

HeubergerMotors 06-23-2014 03:48 PM

Just an FYI to everybody...we have 4 Crystal White Series.Blue BRZs that are currently not sold. :) I know majority of you are WRB fans but for those that like the CWP...we got em comin! Check out the Mega Order Thread to put in your request for pricing.

I'm surprised the CWP Series.Blues aren't getting that much attention considering it's a limited trim.

Although, I am biased towards WRB...

mjh712 06-24-2014 12:42 PM

Im jealous of the blue trim. If I would have gotten a blue series, I think a wrb vinyl wrapped/plasti-dipped in black (except for a few trim pieces; like side vent, side mirrors, sharkfin, maybe spoiler) with Wedssport SA50 blue machined and some blue LEDs would be awesome.

grinerizer 06-24-2014 03:08 PM

Just got our first Blue one in. White is still en route.

Here's the new key fob. It's certainly bulkier and heavier than the key that's in my pocket. Looks nice, though.

I'm so excited! I can't wait until mine shows up at the dealer. I'm going to have such a big, dumb smile on my face while driving this car around.

x1UP 06-25-2014 01:14 AM

I can't wait for my car to arrive to Heuberger so they can deliver it already!

Does anyone who has ordered a Series.Blue, when they enter it, is it the same VIN as the BRZ 2015 Limited? It shows up as a 2015 BRZ Limited for me.

Unless it's supposed to say 2015 BRZ Series.Blue.

Any ideas?

fungizmos 06-28-2014 12:04 AM

Where you doing a VIN lookup? From what i see all the 2015 BRZ's have the same VIN format except the checksum digit and the serial number at the end.

The Series.Blue just seems to have its own option code, compared to the base unit.
