Can't wait!

Curious if you can PM me the cost? I already have one, but I'm just curious.

I want to see this color in person... If the guy at my local Subaru dealer was right it should be close to the bright blue on the Mustangs and it may talk me into a flashy looking car.

Anyone here know if the hyper blue series will have an automatic transmission available as well?

6 Speed Manual Only

I wish they would come out with an automatic version of one of these special series. I would love to get one of the series.blue if it were AT.

You can always just add the lip kit and wheels and call it a day

I actually liked the blue trim better on the steering wheel and seats. But, yeah the body kit and wheels would be nice as well.

I went in to reserve one a few weeks back and my dealership traded with another to get one. Will they jack the price up on because of this? Is it reasonable for them to do this? I am not paying more then edmunds said the series.blue went for last year. Without the lip kit it is not worth as much as the series.blue. That being said ever since I saw this color I have been obsessed. And I just recently gained the financial ability to upgrade from my 1996 Impreza Outback

Don't pay more than MSRP.
Pricing will be public in a month or so.
Dealers will claim this is more rare than the Series.Blue (1000 units vs. 500)
If you put a deposit down, did you not talk about a agreed upon price?
Ie, MSRP, 1k under MSRP...etc.?

Should be similar to the 2015s even with the small price jump for the 16s... So roughly 3k over the Limited

Should actually be less than a limited.
This Series has zero factory add ons.
No wheels, lip kits, etc.
Plus it will only have the standard Starlink without Nav.
My guess is going to be 500 below limited.
The only thing they can charge extra for is the paint color.

but the Hyper Blue will also be a "normal" color for the rest of the lineup.. But they can charge more for less, it is a limited production vehicle meaning it would cost more even if it had less. Look at what Scion has done every year since 2004, make X amount of "special" edition vehicles and charged 1500-3k more for them. like the RS FRS was around 4k more than the regular model.

Is there proof of this color being a "normal" color for the other trim levels?
If so, I have no reason to buy this car now.
