The only difference is the laces, store return policy, etc. The Monogram version moves the trim levels even closer to each other. None of these editions is better than the other, they are all made to fit different price points, preferences, etc.
I agree - I really don't care whether it's a Subaru or a Toyota/Scion. The only reason I am holding out for the Monogram is because I like Scion's color palette more than Subaru's. If Scion Canada prices itself beyond the fully loaded BRZ, then I don't care about the Monogram edition and stick to my original plan for the BRZ.

I also tend to lean towards Toyota because my family has bought 3 cars from the same sales person at our local Toyota dealership in the last 3 years and he has always been a pleasure to deal with. I have zero experience with Subaru and thus a little tentative but obviously will still pursue it if needed to.

Once the official announcement comes out - I may just have to move my car shopping time a month earlier... was planning end of April but may have to move to March due to the "limited time offer".
