Or maybe to attend previews and launch events.

Performance? I don't think there is any thing major at this point. Reviews have said the BRZ to have tighter steering, but these are all adjustable tweaks. Engine-wise, handling-wise, they are pretty much identical.

if that is the case, hopefully the price is pretty similar then... i guess which ever brand that comes into the singapore market first would be grabbing the bigger pie....

Hi guys! I finally found this thread after reading this forum for the past 6 months. I love the GT 86 and can't wait to see it on our shores.

I just contacted my BM contact and he say the car should arrive in Jun2012. Most likely going down to place my refundable deposit next month. But looking at the latest COE spike, the car might be hitting $200K when it finally arrive. That is ridiculous!!! Let's hope a miracle will happen and bring the COE back to sensible levels!

BTW will you guys choose an auto or manual version? I am torn between this 2 because I need to commute to the city and the jam will kill me!

I nearly fainted when I saw the latest bidding. Can easily buy my car 3 years back with change left.

I'm also thinking of getting AT cause the thought of shifting gears multiple times in a jam is not funny. But I will decide after test drive cos I love driving stick back during the army days.

Have you placed your refundable deposit yet?

Hi Guys, joined this forum quite some time ago. Have been following all the action since concept I .

However, after all the effort, I would say the COE just killed my calculator when I tried to key in possible figures.

Most probably I will wait till COE goes down. No matter 2013-2014-2015. Its a great car, but not for $200k.

Sigh...
