It has clear bra and tinted rear windows. Talk to Sue Vang, he sold me mine and is a good guy.

In this case I'm sure the tint costs like $900.

I won't I already have one (that I paid less for!)!

That's not a crazy price though if someone is in a bind and can't wait.

It's been sitting on the lot for a month so I would imagine they would deal.

Yeah, it's strange to see a manual car sitting that long.

Initial "gotta have it now" demand is drying up, in September Capitol was putting leather on every car they could, now I don't think they're installing leather at all. I called it months ago; beginning of summer they'll be sitting on the lots collecting dust like every other sports car, especially if dealers are still playing games.

Yup, I agree with this since I have been searching this past month for a BRZ. Most of the BRZs that was still in showrooms in the beginning of the month are still available with 2-3k markup. They also have the rear diffuser which I wasn't fond of. What's keeping me from buying right now is the markup and being hopeful of news on 2014 BRZ at the 2013 Tokyo Auto Salon next month.

I wouldn't expect much change on the 2014 other than bug fixes and a few more options (mainly for the Scion).

Chuck Patterson in Chico has a Firestorm and Whiteout currently on the lot, I didn't stop to see what transmissions were in them. I don't recall seeing plates mounted on the front, so anyone looking for a car without bumper holes this might be your best bet.

Fair warning - I bought my car from them and I wasn't super happy about the overall customer service level.

If you do decide to buy from them, ask for Ryan Deitz. Old carting buddy of mine; I didn't find out he worked there until after I had purchased mine. He is also the internet sales manager so you won't have to deal with the BS I went through.
