Depends on how you define semi-locally. I went 1,200 miles and it didn't seem that far to be honest. Drove it back home over night.

I had put down a deposit back in early/mid June and have been waiting since. This morning, my dealership called me informing me that allocations are open again, and asked if I want to put in an order. I said yes.

Now, I am no longer on the wait list, and instead have a VON. I asked the dealership when I could expect delivery, and I was giving a wide range of anywhere from December 2012 to June 2013...not sure what to make of this.

Yeah, no shit!

That's the exact SWP Limited BRZ MT I ordered seven months ago sitting amongst their inventory.

That's where I bought mine from, 1000 miles one way.
They have them because their 4th in total volume sales nationwide.
Also ranked (maybe?) number 1 in turbo sales for the country.
As well as no sales tax. Oh, and no markup, paid MSRP.]
The cars will all move. Its just logistically way up in the corner.

I also would do it (for free with somebody else's car!)

I'm supposed to get my car this month, but thanks for the offer. I've amassed quite the inventory of aftermarket parts waiting since spring from Cusco, Perrin, Whiteline, GT-SPEC, TRD, Beat Sonic, Sullivan Racing, StopTech, Grimmspeed, Yonaka, TSW, Michelin, Buddy Club and others. Perhaps no other BRZ has been so eagerly anticipated. I have a warm, clean spot in the garage awaiting this project.

Damn! This round trip or one way? I thought my 600 mile + round trip was good. But to be honest we just went to look at the WRB color to make sure my better half would like it - was not really ready to buy yet...but did.

I feel so sorry for you guys not in New England right now... There's 8 GBS Limited 6MT's available that I could snatch any time if I just had my finances in order. You all on the other hand, have money ready to go and no cars to spend it on!

Congrats on getting your car.

That's one way. Flew to Seattle and drove back that night.

Broke in the car in one day. 2,400 miles to date, no problems and the car pulls really well.
