I don't think that Subaru is limiting the availability of the car, they are just recognizing that at initial launch supply will be very limited relative to demand. Since this car is launching worldwide it may take up to 7 months for production to meet the # of orders they are anticipating thus creating limited availability.

As described in this thread it sounds to me that they are describing the method for which orders will be filled out of the cars they have already produced. There aren't any options on this car so people are basically choosing color, trim level and trans. They aren't actually "custom building" any cars. If you want a premium with foglights, those foglights are getting installed at the dealer.
