I called about your car, and the sales guy said that any declined orders go to waiting list people first and not new customers.

There is a silver AT BRZ limited available at Elk Grove Subaru (no options). I had preordered it, but I couldn't wait for it and ended up purchasing a FRS a couple months ago. Was told the BRZ arrived today- I turned it down- so now its up for grabs! Good luck!

I was informed there is a Argento (silver) FRS 6MT at Dublin and City Toyota in Daly City (also Argento). Both are available.

LOL I got the same call today from someone at Elk Grove. He said the silver was available, but at a marked up price - they want more than MSRP. when I told him I had preordered elsewhere he gave me an extended spiel about how it was in demand and either waiting 2 years or paying a markup was a fact of life.

LOL a major shipload of BRZs must have just been offloaded. Got another call today this time from someone at Autowest Subaru in Roseville, CA. The guy said they have 3, yes 3 WRB BRZs, 1 6MT and 2 6AT. Forgot to ask him if they are Premiums or Limiteds. Anyways he said they are being PDI'd and are not spoken for as of earlier today. However, they are asking $3K markup. Well I guess that's a little better than the $5K markup they told me when I originally called them a few weeks ago.

Well the guy said they are willing to take offers but not MSRP. I told him I had an order for below MSRP and the guy went off on a "cautionary" tale about how other dealerships might promise me a deal but then renege on it and try to gouge me. Thanks buddy, good looking out.
Anyways if anyone is in that area you can at least visit and check out WRB in person, and maybe talk your way into a test drive, seeing as they have so many on the lot.

just a heads-up, dublin toyota loads on upgrades to make a higher MSRP sale. they give you an option of forced upgrades for you to pick, but will not sell you the car unless you make some sort of upgrade that drives the MSRP higher.

If anyone here has pre-ordered an WRB Limited (either 6-speed or AT) and doesn't want to keep the pre-order, please send me PM.

I got a call from a salesman on saturday that they got one in but when i was there friday to ask service to quickly look at my car and see why the engine is making noise like it was 20yrs old. I was told by a fat service manager "sorry all service techs are busy" but they were all standing around the parts department. First impression.. wont take my car there for service if thats how they work with customers. I dont think it would have taken anyone 10mins to just check it out..

that's unfortunate, you're right first impressions make a huge difference and can make or break a service relationship. for what it's worth my wife and I have been taking our tC and MR2 to Dublin for regular oilchanges for a few years and generally been happy with them. They give you a very thorough inspection report after every service, even a basic oil change. Good way to see what mechanical issues may be coming and let you plan ahead (i.e. tire tread low, P/S fluid dirty, CV boot starting to crack). Have not bought a car through them though.

I may have a BRZ for sale at the end of the month but it already has "parts" on it so there would be an extra cost...Pearl White Premium manual with a CF driveshaft and a set of Volk TE37's.
(17 X 7.5 +48 in white also) PM me if you are interested...no charge for the license which I won't give up, LTE BRZ

So who bought the WRB limited BRZ from Maita Subaru? I was going to go check out the limited interior (still have never seen one, only premium/FRS) and the lady said it was gone within an hour.
