I'm looking to get a BRZ Limited in WRB but I'm not sure if I want to get one now or wait for the 2014 with the IMBA discount. I'm not sure if I would like the knee pads or revised badging though..

They quoted me over MSRP for the 2013 model coming in at the end of the month and charged extra for freight. I tried to haggle, didn't go too well. All they decided to do was include a block heater.

What I see is:

2013: lower financing rate and I would have it now for the summer but then I would need snow tires for the winter. (I live in Canada so it's basically a must)

2014: the issues from the 2013 should be fixed, more money and the discount but financing will probably be higher again.

Next closest dealer is 3 hours away from me, so I'm not sure if it's worth the trip there and take a new car on a 3 hour trip fresh off the lot. :/

So torn. What would you guys do? or if you have any tips to get the price down on the 2013 it would be appreciated!
