I agree. Unlucky for him, I want to pay off my current car which will be after October-Nov, so I have more of a down payment for a 3yr loan. One issue of researching this "far out" from when it will be time. Still undecided if I should look for a 13' or just order a 14 around that time

I can tell you that there is no pricing out yet for the 2014 FR-S. I have access to the vehicle ordering system for Toyota.

Luck has nothing to do with it. We won't stand for tyrannical governments that overburden us with taxes. We also aren't lazy and accept gov't mandated early retirement so we can sit around and live off others.

OT - go grind your political axe elsewhere.

Yeah Canadian premiums are a bit ridiculous. There's also no room to budge in negotiations because of the high demand, so it's basically take it or leave it.

I'm just waiting for the 2014 specs to see what changes there are if any, and if it's worth waiting for. If the changes aren't worth the time and money, I don't mind getting a late 2013 model for a little bit cheaper. 2014 BRZ news, where are you? :P

At this point it seems that Subaru is taking more time for the release of the 2014 BRZ information than they need to.

I stopped by the Subaru dealership here in Okinawa, Japan. They showed me pictures of the 2014 Forester (Pre-Release) so I was interested to see what they might have on the new BRZ.

The answer as of right now is… NOTHING! Stay tuned.

On a side note I am trying to decide between White and Silver anyone care to share your thoughts on PROs and CONs of either of the two colors for my 2014 BRZ???

One con of white is it's way more common compared to silver. I think silver looks better on BRZ than FR-S and white looks better on FR-S than BRZ. Yes, this comparison is entirely based on the front bumpers lol. I've also taken a liking to silver after seeing that BRZ Premium Sport Package Concept and 10 Series FR-S even though it's not the same silver lol. What marketing does to ya sometimes.

Yeah, the guy here at my local Subaru says we probably won't see any word on it until the later half of the year. Trying to decide between that, the new M3, and the new STI.

To answer your question. White! I have a silver '12 WRX and I like it but only because of the sharp edges and flares on the car. The silver contrasts well on it. Swp and wrb are the best colors for the brz

@switchlanez has the best example of a flawless WRB BRZ.

Ya but have you seen the 2014 Subaru WRX Concept?! Soooo sick!

Thank you! I have actually been torn between White/Silver/WRB...

Right now for me White is 55%, Silver is 30%, and WRB is 15%... My wife wants me to get Silver which truly is a game changer though. Since I am fortunate enough to get a BRZ Limited as a daily driver her opinion carries a lot of weight.

You are right about White being the most common... It is beautiful but they are everywhere. I like WRB because you know that it is a Subaru and not the FR-S and Silver just has this nice appeal to it on the BRZ.

In the end I think that my wife's vote for Silver will be the deal breaker for me. I think that my love for a BRZ in White is due to the Initial D series for the old AE 86. I think that the Silver would be best for me, I just need to make a decision and stick with it. The problem with this car is that there really isn't a bad color, it looks great in all of them.

Cheers, :happy0180:

I thought our HST was 13%, is there something I don't know?
