That's really interesting, as now I've heard 4 different time frames on the PP package: September, November, January, and March. Anyone know if Subaru would be releasing official info on this soon?
Mmmm limited with Performance Package!

They already have the "build" option on Toyota Japan's website. Hopefully the US follows soon.

The official Subaru statement is "The Premium and Limited models will begin arriving at retailers in early September while the Limited with the Performance Package will arrive at retailers Winter 2017".


There were other official Subaru press releases that said March (which could be considered "winter" in someplace) so I would not be holding my breath for one.


EDIT - Found it. "The 2017 BRZ Premium and Limited models will begin arriving at retailers in September while Performance Package-equipped and Series.Yellow will arrive at retailers early 2017.


March sounds most likely.

So I guess we'll be seeing them in September, November, January, March, AND next December! Truly, a car for all seasons.

See my edit. March looks most likely and even that may be optimistic.

I hope for those waiting find it worth it. I'm probably the only one that would care about this, but I prefer to have a '17MY with a few months to spare than wait until the end of quarter one of 2017 to get my car. Just something about knowing I got a new car for a little longer before the next MY comes out is comforting lol but then again I'm sure the wait for those getting the PP will definitely pay off and they'll have a lot to be excited for when it comes around.

It looks like you're probably right about that. I suppose we'll know for sure in a few weeks if dealers start saying "Oops! Sorry, your car is going to be an extra 6 months late!"

Is anyone familiar with Subaru's ordering system? If I have a VON, what's the typical turnaround time before that moves to a VIN?

Also, does the factory build upon request (in order by date submitted) or do they build batches and then assign the vehicles to matching orders? Curious to see how that all works...

I can't believe I couldn't figure that out.. Lol

Anyways, like I said I went to the dealer today and the sales manager said that he can't order a BRZ w/ PP because the option isn't there yet on their screen. He emailed his regional manager and asked if he should just but the PP in the notes of the order.

Says he'll have info Monday
