I will have you know that the first BRZs in Alaska were SWP Limited 6MT and Silver Premium 6MT. The Premium was actually an early order fulfillment because the person that ordered it (furtive, on here) was actually only two ahead of me and wasn't expecting it until the Fall. They just had a Premium Silver available from the dock, so fulfilled the order. He paid more than he expected because it came with extras, but at least he got it 5 months sooner than I got mine with everything I wanted.

I think SoA does what they can, but I'm not sure about the politics of transferring between dealers.

My closest dealer never carries them. They don't carry WRX's or any other turbo models either. >.<

Well... Here's to hoping the folks that were waiting will get a fair chance to get their hands on one... Don't know if it will work that way though.

well it's not like you're going to see one brz in every other block. i would assume maybe one brz within 1 mile of where you live. of course it depends how populated your area is.

2000 more units. 1500 of them automatic, another 300 MT premiums. and 200 MT limited.

Just kidding, but it seriously took me forever to find an MT Limited, and it just happened to be in the color I wanted!

Must be location. I haven't seen a single auto BRZ for sale out here!

I did manage to test drive an auto FR-S though. Figured Id try it out before I made the hour drive to pick up mine.

Are you on the waitlist at a small dealership? You've been waiting longer than anyone else I've heard in the States...

I still think its crazy that people are still waiting for preorders. My local dealer got 2 and I went up and bought one. I'm very thankful that it was easy for me, but preorders should have been fullfilled first.

Knowing subaru NA they will send them all to the high volume subaru dealers and they will sit there in the snow. Send all of them to socal and they will get sold
