I talked to 2 different people about the BRZ's availability, one guy said "We should be getting two of these BRZs in the next thirty days!"

I asked another sales guy, "It should be about 3-4 months before we get any on our floor"

Same dealer, two sales associates.


They are very good at talking out of their asses....

The 3-4 month guy is probably closer to what other people have been saying.

One guy may have meant a demo, like the one in Irvine, the other guy may have meant for sales??

LOL! i do that alot when im on the freeway. I look in my rearview mirror seeing headlights that resemble the BRZ's and I'm just left heartbroken. Waiting for these cars to be all over the place so i can stop giving my eyes blue balls.

I didn't know how to turn the LED Strip on in the BRZ today, does it come on with the fogs? I got the DRLs and Headlights to come on though. They are nice! Bright as hell and the DRLs look meaaaannnn!!

I believe once you get the car in gear the LED's will light up, because i didnt see them turn on either. My sisters Matrix is kind of the same way, the lights won't turn on until you put it in gear and drive off.

That's pretty mean to be able to drive off looking someone in the eyes and just have them turn on, on their own

I will have to check, but our new '12 Impreza I believe the DRL come on when the handbrake is released. The lights are on when the car is in neutral idling.

Yes my XRS is like that.

Start up; no lights.
Release hand brake DRL on (regardless of headlight switch Off,PL,HL).

Interesting thing is that when you park, and engage the parking brake they stay on until you turn the engine off, so I'm unable to idle without lights unless it's just after start up and I haven't moved.

That's how my '02 WRX parking lights work.
