You'll have much better luck with the FR-S than you will the BRZ unless you happen to stumble across someone who backed out of their order (or you're willing to travel to a dealership in another state). Go to the various Scion dealers and see if they are expecting any to arrive or put in a deposit and order one.

I am headed to a local scion dealer tomorrow and put down a deposit. I am going for a Whiteout 6 speed manual.

Does anyone have a tint place they recommend? I took it to a shop near the house today that did a really half ass job on the back window and I don't even want to bother with taking it back to them to fix it.

If interested and you live in the San Antonio area, can make time for the above requirements, and want a screamer from your car, contact us at 678.488.1011. All testing and tuning will be done at our New Braunfels Texas facility

just got off the phone with you, hope to see you soon.

Today I ordered a whiteout FR-S with the 6 speed manual. They told me it might be 2 months, but they did not need a deposit so it is all good. Now the wait begins.

El, Paso isn't that bad is it? I won't be returning back out there though, they do emissions testing.

San Antonio has a lot more to do and I love the Riverwalk. I also like the little humidity San Antonio has versus El Paso's dry heat. Its also green!
