SHIT!!!! I thought this thread was about the BRZ pricing, but it seems it has been nothing but butthurt people unhappy with their purchases. IMHO, the Scion is marketed for little kids (interior) and serious AutoXers (saving $$$). The BRZ is marketed for adults (interior) who want a sporty DD for a decent price, again, just my OPINION. In the END...IT'S THE SAME FUCKING CAR...one thing is clear, they both have a boxer engine...you're welcome SCION!

Edit: I almost forgot! The price is not as good as I wanted but not as bad as I thought it would be, given all the hype.

Now since then, I've seen the two in person and found the FR-S front end lacking, and the BRZ better looking. I've also come to my senses and realized that, hey, I'm buying this for a DD and not as a points-contender for AutoX, so the extra options (heated seats FTW) are something I want.

So I have an order in for a Limited BRZ.

I don't care that much about badges, just the car they're stuck to. I have 3 Subarus because for each one, a Subaru met my criteria. ..as the BRZ does now.


I too ordered the Limited BRZ knowing that I wanted the extras (I'm old) and I too have multiple Subarus and I AM PROUD OF MY BOXERS. Call me a FANBOI, fuck it, I think they are better cars than scions.
