One other point on the premium you'll pay for a Yellow: there is no way you will be getting a Series Yellow in Canada for less than MSRP - but for a Sport-tech you should be able to knock $1500-2000 off its MSRP with proper negotiation, so the real difference in price will be north of 4k CAD.
That's dependent on the time of year, but you're right. I was offered $1,550 off my Sport-Tech without asking.

Though that might have to do with me flipping the original into a ditch and them feeling sorry for me.

Our local dealer has one coming in so the one per dealership sounds about right. Price is fixed meaning, not negotiable. The $32,695 does NOT include PDI, freight, dealer fees, plates or taxes.
I was just quoted $39,500 out the door. The car is built and waiting to be loaded onto a ship. The salesman told me the car would be here in 8 to 12 weeks.
Furthermore, he said he had no information about a Performance Package for the 2017 BRZ. As far as he knows, (at this time) the only way we in Canada can get Brembo brakes and the Sachs suspension is to order one of these Inazuma limited editions.

I spoke to the dealer in London last week and he said he wasn't sure if built yet but did know it was expected in early March so the timing is about the same. They are also only getting one and the price was not negotiable but it is already sold. The dealer in Stratford is not getting one (they were a bit pissed about it) so not all the dealers will have them.

Oh, and both places had no idea if we would see the PP here but were not optimistic.

Continental drift is a bitch!

I laugh when many Americans ask me how it is "up there" in Canada when over a third of the US is well north of me..


Even the rest of the world that think Canada is way up north don't realize that half our population is actually more in line with southern France, northern Spain or most of Italy. Where I live (just a hair above the point on bottom red marker) is pretty much even with Madrid or Florence Italy.



This concludes today's geography lesson.

Nah, they are about an hour south. Nobody lives there anymore anyway.

At the dealership near me, you can negotiate and get one. They dont give a crap about japanese cultures or racer stuff on long island.
