lol the BRZ badge is just hideous - hopefully you can opt out of getting one

Only thing I still think would be worth it over the GT is the digital speedo, the rest wouldnt make a difference to most, still dont understand why they have dual climate control in a car with as much internal cabin volume as a commodore boot. haha

digital speedo, HIDs and brakes make it worthwhile for me, everything else I'm meh about

Yep, once you've had proper HIDs (not the cheap kits), you don't want to go back.

I reckon there's easily $5k more value in a BRZ than a GT. Then again, I reckon there's a few grand value in the GTS over the BRZ.

My decision has been made.

No regret signing up to buy the 86, but that is a good deal for what you are getting from Subaru. Also, you will be waiting a LONG time for your BRZ if the wait list for the 86 is anything to go by

I agree, this is spec i want. Hopefully the wait is not too long. Otherwise the GT could be an option with December delivery. But thinking i will wait for the car i want and pay cash.

[w arghh x]

The BRZ still has that awful 70's porn mustache on the front bumper tho....that's a $3k drop right there!

Jokes aside, it's definitely a good alternative.

BRZ also has Folding Mirrors for AUS, (unlike some markets) though cannot see myself using them.

Ordered mine Thursday from Dan at Penrith, no bullshit, great service.

Highly recommend them.

Trust me, parking at shopping centers and these come in handy

If it's like the GTS then it's not automatic - gotta press a button for them to fold in. Meh im not fussed.

But got to hand it to Subaru Australia - they've managed to fit this nicely between the GT and GTS and price it to the Toyotas. And love this online ordering system they've got going - this way you will know exactly what order number you are and when you'll get your car. And also the fact that the price is set in stone. No need to have dealers bullshit you as to when it will arrive and how much 'extra' you have to pay.

Bravo Subaru Australia!

So does that mean there's a Toyota in your future?

Does the GT86 not have electric retractable side mirrors?

I prefer to think of it as a Subaru with a Toyota badge.

But with Sat Nav and not Shiny Silver plastic Carbon Fauxbre.

Just got back from a Subaru dealer. Preordering now gives no guarantee you get a car faster. Everyone has to order online, price not negotiable and $3k deposit not negotiable. He couldn't tell me how much options were as a rough estimate either. He did say you would most likely get a brz before June 2013 if you order on Monday.
