A million times this. Search for the color you want or order it, and haggle haggle haggle! It's winter, they should have issues moving these cars and want to work with you.

No knee pads for BRZ (except the series.blue). Kneepads are just for the FRS in 2015.

<--- too lazy to look for press release on 2015 brz additions.

Don't let the lack kneepad get to u. lol Those kneepads sucks, get one from after market instead. They have next to zero padding inside.

I think it depends on the car's color too. I think it looks nice on dark colors like black, blue, and red. But I would prefer without even if the option was free. Chrome hurts my eyes.

I bought my BRZ off the showroom floor with 50 miles on it. After they got it ready for me, I pushed the start button and nothing happened. The battery was dead. They replaced the battery and it's been fine. Prior to that, I also test drove a new FR-S off the Scion showroom floor, and they had to jump start that one for me. I'm not sure what's going on, whether these batteries need to be charged by daily driving, or if there was a bad batch, or if they are just weak, or what. But my car has been fine since I drove it home with the new battery.
