"Officially underway" sounds they're comfortable with the end products enough to start with mass producing.

Also it says the earliest date the people in Japan get one will be sometime in July.....

They may have the numbers right, but I thought that the Japanese market was getting the first cars in april to may? No way are we getting ours before theirs...They already placed orders weeks before the US BRZ folks did.

Right now it looks like some kid drew a circle and a square next to each other.

That could be true. I found another source saying 4,000/month including exports. http://autoprove.net/2012/03/15856.html
Also, over 10,000 pre-orders in Japan so far.

Anyway, many hypes at this moment.....
