Military rebate
For all of the military folks :
http://www.scion.com/promotions/militaryrebate/ www.scion.com/military I hope this 1) is still around when the FR-S is released and 2) doesn't exclude the FR-S since it will be a new model. Also, i checked out the Subaru site, didn't see anything pertaining to military sales. The internet access I have here is very anti-flash so maybe you can see more than I can. Quote:

Just as a heads up, check out direct pricing through USAA, if you're a member. I was shocked at how much it took off of a brand new 2012F350!! Took pricing down to $48k from $54k.
It was better pricing than I could get on an end of year 2011 F350 with rebates and my X-plan. |

Yeah. I used the USAA Auto Circle program last year to buy my wife's car and it saved us an extra couple $k off plus rebates. I wound up getting the car for $7000 off msrp.

also you have to remember most dealerships give a military discount even. usually they wont combine them but they will give the greater discount to you.
and ya USAA is good stuff. one of the guys i work with got totally smashed and called them to have them tow him home and they did it even though nothing was wrong with his car. |

I was looking into this as well, im no longer active duty since jan 2010 but i think im still technically inactive reserve for another year or so .....it would be nice to have a grand bumped off the top.....but being the latest greatest model i doubt it, i think gm does the same thing by excluding the z06 from rebates as well.....

Nice. Didnt know usaa did that. Ill look into that.
Would that still work though due to scions "pure pricing"?

^^It trumped my current X-plan discounts, combined with Ford's truck month (year end blow out) rebates and a bit of haggling.
I don't think Scion's pure pricing will be effect it being available. Perhaps the percentage it takes off. |

So to do it, do you have to be insured through usaa or just current active service?

I spoke with a local Scion dealer and they told me the $1000 Military Rebate was for all Scions and that it would most likely include the FRS. I was looking at the BRZ but with a $1000 rebate and a cheaper price to begin with I might take this route. I also like the fact that a Supercharger might become available.

It applies to FR-S...Bought mine 5-31-12 and used it no problem. Don't let any dealers tell you different. Funny a guy in my shop bought a BRZ, same day, and he had to haggle the crap out of them to get 750 "off" the price.
