If it is priced above $27k then I'm switching my order to a Scion, I don't mind since they will drive similarly. And on top of that, I can get TRD parts installed at the port, hahahaha!

At least my dealer here at Chaplins Subaru in Bellevue called me today to tell me that they will get a BRZ show car this Saturday. FINALLY!!! I get to see and feel what "I might" get. So anyone in the Bellevue WA area, you can finally see a BRZ from Saturday to Monday (24th - 26th).

Sales guy says "pre-production" model so no test drives. Just sit and feel. I'll be taking pictures of course.
the demo car is at carters right now. A bunch of us have already gone and seen it and taken pictures the thread is in the brz pictures sub forum.

Note to Jack*, if you send the First 86 any other letters, please dress up like this and sign it! I will gladly hang it in a place of prominence for all to see, right next to my signed photo of Craig Breedlove and Norm Abrams.

*(and yes, I know that ain't Jack in the photo)

You have to compare the BRZ STI/FRS TRD with the GC 2.0T because it has more hp. Oh wait........

There are no "sports cars" and really only one muscle car (Dodge Challenger SXT at $24K even).

I don't see a single car in that bunch that (potentially) looks like it will drive and feel like this one, IMHO.
The only car in that range is the mustang v6 with the performance package and just under $25k MSRP including delivery. And it had hids, 19 inch rims and led taillights. But yeah it's drive train blows up when you go to fast and it has a solid rear axle. But it has a LSD and you will be able to get mad discounts and it has way more power. Just don't drive it over 130mph! Lol!

Hopefully we will get BRZ pricing tomorrow too!

Hey scion said spring and they were right...second day of spring.

You also have to compare the mustang V6 with the $2000 performance package, it has the LSD and 19 inch rims and tires and better brakes. Around $25k msrp.
The only problem with that is the R-Spec gets more than just a LSD. If you put 18''-19'' wheels/leather-cloth interior and Brembo brakes on a FRS it would eclipse the price of a GC 2.0T R-Spec. Hyundai packages their car for bang for buck.

FR-S pricing is live on Scion.com - $24,930 (destination included)

Not sure if anyone noticed, but the Scion page has gone live with the FR-S on the front with pricing.
