I'm getting Galaxy Blue Silica (the other blue) A.K.A. Ultramarine on the FR-S side. I love WRB but from the looks of poles on here that is going to be the most common color and I want something a little different. Plus then maybe it will show up sooner

I might get a personalized plate but it would have to be something really fun otherwise I'd just feel like a tool. The only other plan I have to customize is making a customized iPhone dock and maybe removable iPad mount.

Well it'll be easy to tell you guys apart then.

I'm kind of like you, I want to get a customized plate, but I don't want to be

(A) recognized by people I don't know and

(B) easy to spot if I'm driving aggressive on back roads


And I'm still debating about whether to upgrade to the BeSpoke (if upgradable) or take my radio from my tc that I put in 2 years ago.

i'm going to have to call brooklyn park subaru dealer again today to confirm that my order was placed. sales guy wasn't really on top with the communication. i'll also ask if they can sell the car at msrp. if not, i'll go back to burnsville subaru. the life time powertrain warranty from morrie's is going to make a difference if they decide to sell above msrp.

At Bloomington I got confirmed when I first contacted them that it will be MSRP, and the communication has been great. They even sent me some $2 off coupons for the Auto Show so I can go see the BRZ there if they don't get a demo in at the dealership first.

i just verified with walser sales that they will not be selling it over msrp, so take that for what it's worth.

when i talked to the sales manager last time at brooklyn park, he said that they'll most likely sell above msrp. i left him a vm and waiting for his call.

brooklyn park sales manager just said that he can promise me the brz for msrp after telling him that walser would sell it to me at msrp. initially, the brooklyn park manager said that they would most likely mark it up by about $500. just a heads up for anyone thinking of shopping at brooklyn park subaru.

That video is such a tease! I'm not sure how tall that guy is but I love how low the BRZ looks next to him.

i'm curious to know if that video was shot at morrie's showroom. if it is, i'm going to drive there as soon as they're open. i have a feeling it's not, otherwise the sales manager would have told me that they have a brz on the floor.

They don't have it there. The guy who filmed the video did it in another dealership, but couldn't tell me where.

The gal that answered the phone said they've been getting a lot of calls about it though!
