2014 or 2015 BRZ Limited? Price?
 

Hi all!

I'm looking to buy a new BRZ and have heard that demand for these have dropped since most people snagged them up when they came out. I'm debating whether I should pick up a 2014 and try to get a good deal or whether it's worth just getting the 2015 with all the changes it's had. After looking at some listings on Autotrader, I found a 2014 BRZ Limited in WRB w/ 219mi and 1b option package for $24.9k and a 2015 BRZ Limited in WRB and wheel locks for $25.9k. I'm using those prices to negotiate prices with dealers around me and am also trying to see if I can bring those prices down further since I heard that some of y'all got 2014s for $23.9k and $24.5k in 2014. I'm having a hard time getting dealers to come down on their prices. Any tips for negotiating further? And which year should I go for? Heuburger Motors quoted me $25.1k for a 2014 Limited; should I try to see if they'll come down on their price?

Thanks for the help!

Here we go again....

To answer your question, you will probably not find a better price than what Heuberger is quoting you. I bought my Series.Blue with them and they were the best price by far.

They do a great job of taking care of potential buyers, it's hard pressed to find any dealer like them. Unless you get lucky and you find that your local dealer are just as good, then good for you.

I would go for the 2015, especially if it's that little of a price difference. The fact that the 2015 has has a bit better suspension, sharkfin antenna, new key fob and etc. The WRB on the 2015 is a shade darker than previous WRB also.

Otherwise, good luck with your purchase!

They're selling the limited for 25k? That's pretty freakin cheap

I got my Limited '14 BRZ from heuberger not too long ago. Best bet with them and super easy to deal with.

Unless you are partial to the newer color, or feature there's not much difference between the two. So there are other factors to consider...

I selected a 2014 Limited over a 2015 because of the available Subaru financing. I got 0% financing for up to 72 months that was not available if I selected a 2015. My credit union and no other bank was willing to offer that rate.

Unless your are purchasing the car out-right, factor in trade value (assuming a trade), finance rate, insurance cost, and you should always offer less than the price the dealer quotes you. At least, that's my approach to buying a car. :)

This is exactly the reason I went with a 2014 instead of a 2015 as well. The banker in me couldn't pass up free money for six years.

Yeah, "free" is my second favorite word! ;)

Ended up getting a Sterling Silver '14 BRZ Limited for $24k OTD and delivered to my house (300 miles) from Grayson Subaru in Knoxville, TN. Delivery is supposed to happen today. Looking forward to driving it!!

Wow that's a great price. Good job!

was this new?

Yup. Brand new with 46 miles on the odometer. Also came with cargo tray and autodimming mirror.

wow, you got your car for cheap... I was sort of in the same situation, but I liked the extras on the 2015 way better than the previous years. not to mention I qualified for the 0.9% APR so it wasn't that bad at all.

What are the extras?

2015 has the sharkfin antenna and better exhaust tips. Not sure if there are any other differences.

Edit: minor changes to suspension, too.

I believe the suspension has also been tuned a little differently for 2015
