It's been an interesting day, having sat in both FR-S and BRZ... now to make a final decision...
Wait, you can tell the front bumper was repainted? That's no bueno. Then they throw a 1k mark up on that? Hell no. Heeeelllll no. What do they think this this is made out of? Some rare metal we'll never see again? In 2013 you'll be able to buy these cars anywhere.

I know, seems like the fact that it was damaged and repaired, they should be knocking $1000 off.

I didn't really ask about the bumper, he just out and said that it had to be repainted. I did see noticeable orange peel in the paint along the bottom of the front bumper and fender. But I think I read others saw the same thing on other BRZs so perhaps that is a common issue/characteristic of these cars.

I told him I was willing to wait until next year to pay MSRP rather than pay the markup... he kind of shrugged and said there were plenty of people willing to pay it. No sense arguing so we went our separate ways.

i guess someone backed out on this due to the bumper repaint.. called last week or so and Larry Fung said it's all sold...

If it has markup I will try to keep it off the list since the general consensus on the boards is to discourage anyone from a purchase with markup. I'll make any notes of accessories that bump up the price significantly.

Freemont Scion: AT Firestorm
Freeman Toyota, Santa Rosa: MT Unknown

Peircy in Milpitas had a Grey MT and Red AT this afternoon, I know they were calling people off their list to get them sold though.

I have an incoming Raven MT reserved for only ME to sell (at Scion Pure Pricing i.e. NO MARKUP).

PM me for my contact information, and if you're a serious buyer, the car is guaranteed yours.

I just checked and it's still listed.

When I was talking to them a while back they said they were going to add $2.5K mark-up. Don't know if that's still the case.

Marin Subaru has a White BRZ Limited 6MT, as of this morning... lady I talked to said the pre-order backed out... probably cause of the $1995 markup! They refused my offer of MSRP. She said someone will pay it... I hope not, but there's lots of rich gotta-have-it type people in Marin I'm sure.

EDIT: got an email from the dealer confirming it has sold.

Ha, wow. I stopped by there on Sunday and sat in that SWP. The salesmen said the car was already sold and waiting for the person who pre-ordered to come pick it up. I wonder if they pulled a fast one on the person who pre-ordered it with the $1995 markup...
