That rough estimate puts cars arriving at US Subaru and Scion dealerships in early to mid-May, depending upon your closest coast.

Would those with more insight agree?

Subaru stated "Late Spring" at NAIAS. So that sounds roughly correct.

So Japan will get the first ones in a few weeks in early to mid April. Nice! We should be seeing some production testing soon!

Great news, but I find it interesting about how they did PR with the event. Spies have had pictures of 86 and BRZ sitting on the lot being loaded to truck for shipment for at least a month. and were not talking about a couple on the lot we are talking full lots. Still great news thanks for sharing.

The video is pretty cool. Shows how awesome the PR event was and the joint venture of both Subaru and Scion.

The joint venture was between Subaru and Toyota. Scion is just a small part of Toyota.

Opps. I didn't even noticed I mistakenly put Scion instead of Toyota.
