No I was not letting the engine warm up before checking. I've never done that on any of my older 90/80/70s cars.

I was just reading the BRZ (2014) user manual. It says:
1) Park engine on level ground
2) Warm up engine (not sure if that means full operating temp or not)
3) Turn off engine and wait at least 5 minutes for oil to drain back to pan
4) Check level

I'll replicate those steps and report back the result.
