Weren't there guys paying $40K + in order to get one of the first? I seem to recall at least a couple that claimed to have spent that.

YEP!

One 46/48k due to buying into all the b.s. 'extras,' from the dealer.

Like rim guarantee, windshield protector...etc

Hope at least its lesson learned. It's painful at times, but a learning process.

I say i got jipped as i couldn't decide on the options but that total also included the 1.7k in sales taxed added on. So really I got the car for MSRP, just an extra ~1k on unwanted options. The clear bras did come in handy, though haha

I figured buying the car a month before it even reached our shores, i should be able to chose the options, but i'm sure there are many logistical reasons why that is incorrect.

Options are added at port or by the dealer so you most certainly should be able to pick them. That said anybody trying to get one of the first would likely be told "take it the way we sell it or it goes to the next in line" so they sort of had you. If buying one now there would be no excuse for them to force options on somebody ordering a new car.

Looking at the prices I'm really glad I pulled the trigger on my BRZ for $17k. I got an amazing deal and didn't have to settle for a scion

wow that is insane, i did not expect a car designed to be a budget sport vehicle to receive markups like this. I got my 2013 last year for 20k before taxes with 1800 miles on it....thank you to whoever ordered it with the trd intake and exhaust

they are lovely.

Great when sitting still.
When moving though...
"HMMMM getting out of range better change the station".
Touch
"Shit not that one
Touch bump"
"Damnit"
Touch
"Closer"
Touch bump bump
"How did I end up on AM"
Touch
"No not Bluethooth"
Touch
"Ahhhh FM"
Touch
"Christ I am back where I started"
