Prolly huge. I assume he just chose two different numbers to be able to differentiate them in the UI screen.

For example, if you probe their production web site, you'll see their app makes requests to

http://www.subaru.com/rawdata/imprezawrxsti.html

to get msrp. In this mock up we see that it's requesting data for

https://proj4.boxer.subaru.com/rawdata/brzlimited.html

I tried switching that to

http://www.subaru.com/rawdata/brzlimited.html

but no love. They may not yet have the production software deployed.

I went to proj3.boxer and there's another one! Not much new there but I did snag the digital brochure download. I won't share it but, you know what to do.

edit... so I'm dumb. That brochure is on the real website too. Anyways there is also a proj2.boxer. Neither of these have the BRZ stuff.

"SECURITY
BRZ Limited comes with a keyless entry system that also starts the engine remotely and provides an answer-back electronic chirp. The antitheft security system also includes an engine immobilizer"

Remote Engine Starter? Do they mean keyless start or a real remote engine start button on the fob? I highly doubt there would be a remote engine starter.

Not saying these prices are legit, but it would be better for Subaru to lead us along and believe it was at a higher price point when the real price was lower vs. the opposite.

JB, that's very interesting! Thanks for sharing. Love the technical insight into how/why we're seeing not-yet-published pages at Scion.com and Subaru.com. :happy0180:
