So I knew that I wanted a 2017 with the Performance Pack. I preferred a Series Yellow if I could. So I started looking around. In the Seattle area there are 5 Subaru dealerships. And a few of them had the Series Yellow available (MSRP ~$31,000) but Subaru of Puyallup had most of their BRZs already marked down to Invoice. Have a look.

When I contacted them they said the Series.Yellow shouldn't have been but whatever.
So here's where you can get some savings. If you have owned a Subaru before Call SOA and ask for a Loyalty Coupon. They will send one to your dealer of choice which takes off an additional $500 off the final price. I did mine after the fact since I was rushing the deal to make it time for the next boat, so SOA sent me a check for $500. So that's how I got my car for $500 under invoice. In Washington dealer fees are $150 and in Alaska there is no Sales tax (at the moment) so OTD my Series.Yellow was $28,900 before I put 12% down on the car.
Another thing to consider if you can't find a local deal around invoice or don't want to travel to one that does and don't mind waiting more (6 mo). Join a group that has access to the Subaru VIP Program like IMBA. You can join for $35 and after 6 months you qualify for the VIP Purchase program which sends your dealer a Certificate from SOA telling them to sell you a vehicle at invoice.
The only dealer 'close' to you that I know usually gives killer deals (especially) to forum members is Heuberger Subaru:

I don't know if Clint is still there but here is a quote he gave me in Jan for a 2017 with PP:
MSRP - $29,660
Invoice Price - $28,131
Forum Exclusive Price - $27,277
Total Price Including $489 Dealer Handling $27,766
...That's all I have to contribute... besides to say try to finance with a local credit union.
