Found this googling... 2700 BRZ pre-orders USA

Article dated March 31st, 2012.

Towards the end is where the BRZ FR-S info is:

That's incredible, considering the GT86 is not even offered in North America.

Give the Kiwi's a break :bonk:

LOL... Obviously meant FR-S

their source for that is probably this ft86club article which was talking about Japanese numbers

Well, way to circle around the wagon.. I guess the thread can now be deleted, old news.

I did not know about it; thought the highest number for pre-orders had been 1000.

My bad.

If that's the case, I think it's funny how information gets inadvertently regurgitated back into the forums.

That's sick! Practically 10,000 cars on a pre-order basis

Yup, 10,000 shmucks who could have bought themselves a pony car or a Genesis coupe for the same money.......:bonk:

Or... 10,000 intelligent individuals who decide to not purchase one of the two inferior cars mentioned previously. For the record, there are forums dedicated to both of those lesser options. ;)

and over half of them will backout thats how it is.

not sure which side of that equation the "schmucks" will be...in about 6 months or so we'll know...because without question all of the car rags will have comparo's of this car against those "also rans"

This has happened a number of times. We don't have a name for this phenomenon yet. :lol:

Why are you still here, then? Walk your ass over to the nearest Ford or Hyundai dealer and sign on the dotted line, and leave us "shmucks" alone.
