Yep, I work at CHS. I had a tough time deciding between the BRZ and the GTI, but I figured the GTI would be more practical. It also has (IMO) one of the best interiors available. The torque is...

I haven't been added to the list yet, but I officially cancelled my order this morning. Unless the dealer in Huntsville, AL over-allocated there should be a spot open there for a pre-order.
