Anyone know which Houston dealership the BRZ will be at this week?

ALL I HEAR IS HYPE

seriously, do you not realize that this is simply a marketing/PR gimmick intended to create a perception of scarcity?

stop feeding the HYPE

Well said.

Maybe someone can help me. After an order is placed on the dealer site on thursday, are they allow to modify their order at all or is it set in stone? Lets say you wanted to change color after the order was placed or if ur order was placed in error? thanks

Damn, now I know why the model I want is called "Limited"...

My dealer says he'll sell for MSRP, I've never paid MSRP for a car before...

i think you'll be lucky to buy the car at msrp due to this Subaru allocation system lol.

It's just the whole tease their doing. Ever since the beginning. Mule after mule, concept after concept, now we finally have the car available for sale in a couple months and they STILL wanna drag it out. It's maddening. Some of the guys on here have been waiting a long time for this car. You can only stomp all over people's emotions for so long before they finally leave you and go find their happiness somewhere else, lol. Forcing people to wait till the second model year just to get the car at a reasonable price is criminal. That's about as low as it gets in the car industry.

I guess, but I'm trying to convince myself to pull the trigger because I can't decide if I should just keep my G35 coupe and not "fight" for the BRZ in this first year. But then again it IS 2012 and the Apocalypse is coming so...

G35? If it is still running well you could wait 6-9 months for the heat to settle and see what the rumors say about a BRZ STI version. If you need a new car cause your current one is falling apart, well that is a different issue.

Somewhat hype, but it is what it is 500 cars per month at 6000 a year. That is still a lot of BRZs for the first model year. There is always the FR-S...but it will probably be in the same boat...500 cars a month.
