I don't NEED a new car, but I'd like one. I'd like a DGM Limited automatic. I'm not inclined to buy a Premium, and even less inclined to buy an FR-S. I want certain features in my next car. If I have to wait, or buy elsewehere to get what I want for a price I'm willing to pay, I'll do so.

I'm wondering how many lightly used '13 BRZs & FR-Ss we'll see on the market in Summer 2013. Young kids who couldn't make the bill; people who jumped on the hype, but ended up not liking the car; or the "DAYUM they've got a 2014 STI/Toyota FT86 out!" people.

Sorry if I've strayed too far off topic.
even though car prices depreciate the most within the first 3 years of ownership, i think that you'll find used 1 year old BRZs still selling at pretty close to msrp due to the lack of availability, assuming this whole subaru allocation thing is true.
