Since we're being picky, can you change the compression ratio.

Compression Ratio: 12.5.1
Compression Ratio: 12.5:1

And why is there a BRZ (base) which doesn't exist in the US?

Seriously? Subaru.com. Two models. Only two models. The premium is basically an FR-S, just with HIDs and Navigation. It doesn't get much more base unless we get the RA in the future, which is highly unlikely.

This is a helpful thread once the incorrect info is taken off. I'd remove the BRZ STI also as it's not out this year, and for all we know, it may never be released.

It should also be noted that this thread only applies to the US market.

As in 200 for the calendar year? That's a totally different format from all others we've heard so far, not to mention a huge amount of cars compared to everyone else. I'm calling shenanigans until confirmed.

Follow-up from Lee's Summit Subaru. They are allocated 7 (as reported) and have a 20+ waiting list (as reported) but they do not have 7 deposits down. They are taking deposits for MSRP with no mark-up, and say "the price should be $25-28k".

Once the actual price list comes out, they expect the allocation will be spoken for very quickly. There is no situation that seems to lead to an opportunity to test drive at this point.

Some additional info:

BRZ codes:
Premium 6MT = DZA/01
Premium 6AT = DZB/01
Limited 6MT = DZE/01
Limited 6AT = DZF/01
For USDM, weight is:
DZA/01 = 2762 lbs
DZE/01 = 2776 lbs
IMO, your speculated FR-S price range is a bit on the low side. Most recent rumors and expectations are $23-24k.

What are the sources for the FR-S production numbers? (the BRZ numbers are approximately what I've read/heard)

Are those initial allocations, for the calendar year, or for the model year? Another submission for your list:
Steve Lewis Subaru, Hadley, MA: 6 (calendar year)

FYI: AR = Arkansas not Arizona (you have it listed as Arizona in the master list)

It's a pretty common mistake
