Hi guys,

I placed my order with the dealer on the 16th after hesitating ordering on the 13th. My dealer first took a deposit from me then got back to me and said that they couldn't order it and that I would have to pay the deposit to Subaru Australia directly. They did refund my original deposit but I had to cough up just over $6k on the day to get my order in. The dealer did the online process for me... looking back I should have done it myself but I was at work. My order was confirmed with Subaru Australia at 3.15 EST, order number 517 for a WR Blue plain-jane BRZ.

On the website it still says pending for both "Where is my BRZ now" and "Estimated Delivery". My question is, does order number 517 mean that I'm not one of the 201 this year? I have spoken with the lovely Natalie at Subaru Australia and she's told me an estimate of delivery is early next year, however my dealer is still telling me October! I would have thought I had gotten in quick enough to secure one this year. I also told the dealer if WR Blue was unavailable to get me white, now I read that white ones have quicker delivery but my order appears to be locked in as blue.

To make matters worse there's a guy who lives around the corner from me who's got a silver 86... so now there's that to taunt me every day! Really kicking myself for not ordering one sooner!
