If you're willing to travel, Briggs Subaru is taking refundable deposits. Lee's Summit is non-refundable. Both are in desperate need of customers lol

Not bad. My guesses were only a few hundred bucks off.

The price delta's seem appropriate given the equipment added.

I have a dealership seven miles from my house taking refundable deposits. I really need to wait until my wife starts working in about a month to actually make a move.

It seems very unlikely that they will match the 8% markup the Scion version is getting, but I doubt they will go with the 30% premium they currently have on the WRX or they are going to sell squat, demand is not that inelastic with the Scion option out there. My guess: 12-15% markup.

Not that I really care that much, the BRZ's silver painted dash makes me gag, and the colour options up here (only white, silver, black, and WR blue) don't do it for me.

The prices seem reasonable. But I think the Limited can reach $30k OTD after TTL.

Good stuff. Many of us in the midwest may get to take the pick of the litter.

@Canadians... my dealer told me (and confirmed me more than once) that the "Premier" model doesn't come with navigation... I have absolutely no problem with that as it could keep the price down... (fingers crossed)

Do you want fog lights, spoiler, heated leather seats, seat side mirrors and wiper blades, ACC? Do you have an extra $2k you don't mind spending?

That's the inner torment lol. I'll wait till they actually have that car where I pre-ordered and take it for a test drive (no idea when that'll be but i'm somewhere down the list I think). I presume it'll be a while before the actual car comes so ... june, july? Finances are doable, but the question remains do I want these doodads. Leaned towards AT so it'll be an extra 3k.

Meh... hem and hawing, at least my deposit's refundable ~_~;

I just wonder why would they want advertise Scion as if its more expensive than it is. Maybe its their common practice. But if I were Scion, I'd post 24.2K price tag everywhere, not 24.9K.

Subaru makes a good marketing move once again. Basically people will see 24.9 vs 25.2 and think 'What the heck? Why would I get that s..t, if Subaru is just a few hundreds away' Then will come destination charges, but purpose is served, people will be cross-shopping more easily. Psychology, freshmen's year.
