The problem? Not a SINGLE Subaru dealership has one within like a 50 mile radius the last time I checked. At least, none of the new ones. I've found a couple used ones I'll probably have to try out instead.
I'd hop on both of the respective websites and take a closer look at that the MY17 refresh looks like for each. Also worth knowing is there have been some pretty extensive detail revisions for both. The Manual version from each camp also came out with a tiny bit more power and torque and (more importantly) its final drive ratio has been updated from 4.1 to a 4.3.

This might be of use to you http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=103053

If I were planning to order a specific setup colour etc and was in the market for a brand new car, I would not think twice about getting an MY17.
