No not just yet mate, House is an appreciating asset! And I have spent a lifetime on depreciating liabilities aka cars

Will definitely go down to the dealer when I'm back home though, one drive will give me a good idea of whether I want it or not!!

Not that price was ever and issue..

I was looking at the images on the press release page (http://www.ausmotive.com/2012/06/04/...press-kit.html) and it looks like the GT is fitted with Yokohama's.

what about the other customers from the same dealership? Will they get the same freebies and gift too?

That's an Aus car, and the spec shows full size spare.

There is a photo going around with a floor mat that covers it, but it still leaves a giant donut in the middle of the boot.

Hi Miguel we are happy because normally our cars here in Oz are near double than in the US so being $10000 to $15000 more is a huge bonus.In car manufacturers eyes Australia is called Treasure Island they make huge profits here,it sucks but spare a thought for the poor guys in Singapore,Malaysia they have to pay $120000 to $150000 US because of huge gov taxes,ps I ordered my whie brz limited back in feb should be here in July and I still don't know the real price I hope it's the same has the ft86 hope this clears things up,also the average salary here is around $60000 to $90000 a year

Not at the moment I have bought 2 previous WRX from this dealer in Penrith and I've had good service.If the price is way over I would think again

I just thought the ft86 would be the same as the brz,it's boot is just normal can't see the spare or a doughnut ring,could be that the brz has a space saver.I just googled brz trunk and it came up with pictures on mototrend

Every version has a space saver (FR-S, BRZ, GT86, etc), except for the Aus 86.

Hi guys, quick update, i spoke with my stock controller this afternoon and it seems some of the GT stock has freed up a little. I can get a couple of GT's in August for people and possibly a few GTS's as well (obviously the preorders are going to have their vehicles first) but from the looks of things we have been able to get a few more.....love my stock controller!
