For example, your comment about the key fob: I don't think ANYONE can deny that it looks 100x better than the old one, but you just had to discredit that by mentioning how it stays in your pocket anyway... which isn't really true because I see a lot of owners just letting it dangle from their belt loops.

If you were a jealous Mustang or Gen Coupe owner, I'd understand, but why put down the brand new shiny toy of a new fellow twin owner?

It's all opinion and online forums are about discussion and opinions. Not all opinions are sugar coated. If anything I've noticed that most people on this forum seem to be very straightforward with their opinions.

My opinion: 2015 key fob looks great, but not worth $200 when it just sits in your pocket. I can't imagine someone ever saying, "Wow, that's a nice key fob hanging from your pocket!" Sad to admit, I've gotten a ton of compliments nearly every time someone sees my key fob holder. I think it's a good solution to the plain looking factory fob. Some people paint their fobs, others buy a cover...to each their own. I was simply providing an alternative route to those who don't like the appearance of their key fob. (Since the 2015 fobs are backordered anyways)

Also my opinion: The Blue Series is a disappointment. Considering that the GT86 is not sold in North America, the Monogram brought joy to a lot of people wanting a closer GT86 version than the FR-S offered. Good move listening to the community!

Now look at the Blue Series, tS version, 2014 version with knee pads and Aha, and the 2015 version with a shark fin. None of those changes were ground breaking or anything that a vast majority of the community was asking for, so I consider those disappointments. The trim kit is a nice offering, new key fobs are definitely nicer, but everything else is a bust. I think the community would've reacted better to STi stitching on the seats as opposed to the BRZ lettering. I could be completely wrong though. I'm not stating facts...just opinions.

So there...no one is right or wrong about it.

I hope you understand that my posts are purely my own opinions and not meant to offend you or anyone else.

Oh. Nice. Its the blue series? When did you place your order? And how long did you have to wait? Apparently there is only a white sti version left. I wanted an automatic 😅 order the sport-tech, but they said its in production. Dont know how long that will be. -_-

I placed an order on April 27,2014. Sales told me the production was on May 8. The car roll out from the factory on May 9/10. The vehicle was on the boat last week of May and Car arrived on June 18 at the dealer lot.

Hope this helps.

haha it is helpful to know the ball-park estimate of arrival, how did you track it so well? your salesperson? haha and also, did you get any discount off the MSRP

My salesman update me on a bi weekly basis without me asking. He is pretty good on that.

My Limited 2015 is scheduled to arrive in late July. No exact date and no guarantee. I'm paying $100 over invoice. Not great, but better than MSRP.

Same with mine. Late July, early August. The dealers here won't go close to invoice.

Blah @ price. I could have had 2014 for $400 below invoice, but I know how people test-drive these things.. I want a new one

Sorry for the crappy pictures as I am not a pro-photographer. Only crappy cellphone pics available.

Cheers!

Would love to see some better quality pix when you get a chance.
Yours is the first White Blue.Edition I have seen.
And If anyone else has pix of the white ones please post them.
