The BRZ Blue.Series do also come with all the Underbody panel parts thou, it's like the first model that's actually comes with every thing they got in Asia or Europe.

It's funny how most ppl are gonna dislike either the yellow rs or the blue interior, must be a joke being played by both company. =P

At least they didn't do both together, like a yellow car with a blue interior... That's 2003 Evo VIII status

The way I see it is. Majority of people complain that Asia and Europe got the better versions of the car. Maybe so.

So now when they are offering a similar version with genuine products that are decent quality (I hope). We're still complaining and moaning.

The majority of people who buy these cars care more about performance than looks. So many people are complaining because you are paying a premium for the same performance.

well the dealers are ill-informed (shocking)

the way it works is simple, you go into a dealership ask to put down a deposit on an FR-S that way when they're released the dealer in question can get one allocated to them for you.

the deposits basically a guarantee.

However, some (most) dealerships will try to be sneaky. so before you sign anything make sure it says the dealership guarantees,
  1. To get one with your exact specifications
  2. That your deposit is 100% refundable under any circumstance

as they say always get it in writing.

And when the dealership obtains a VIN and confirmation. Do the whole process again. to verify, you don't want any extras, no warranty, no dealer perks, nothing but what was stated in the origninal agreement.

they'll put pressure on you, do not fold.

they'll keep you for hours if they have to, do not fold

just be quick, clear, and focused.

and you leave a happy customer.

2/cents

I'm waiting on the upgrade that has "Toyota Emblems" instead of "Scion emblems" then maybe I'll think of trading in.

Took the first step today and put the $500 deposit!!!!
strangely enough the dealer didn't even know the MSRP or anything about it.....

now if i had said Corolla Camry Rav4... that would be a different story.
