Confirmed Australian BRZ models - BRZ Coup, BRZ Coup S - No 17inch. JDM Engine
Just had my dealer contact me, and there is hardly any difference between them.
Dealer said the only difference are the seats. Wheel and tires the same! Will need to confirm if adaptive headlights etc is any different. ** Confirmed, it IS only the seats and seat heater! ** Confirmed AU Melbourne prices. Coupe (M) $42,699 driveaway Coupe (A) $46,658 driveaway Coupe S (M) $43,949 driveaway Coupe S (A) $47,909 driveaway All no cost paints, so pick whatever you like. Edit: Notable things - Looks like we have the JDM engine specs and Satnav included on the multimedia display. Actually I think we are 1kw higher than the rated JDM spec...? Interesting differences in weight - but it is TARE, not KERB. 1249kg. Includes a FULL spare tire The weight situation is interesting. I calculate kerb weight (full tank 50L) as about 1277kg @ average weight 98RON fuel. The base 17inch GR86 is 1275kg with a repair kit. Photos of specs: Last edited by Blighty; 09-07-2021 at 12:49 AM. Reason: Updated for confirmed specs |

Money wise it was $37,150 drive away. Thats only 6k less than the new car 10 years later. The Toyotas were 29,990+on-roads for the GT and 35,490+on-roads for the GTS. When I bought my GTS its cost $39,637.49 - that's with the pearl white paint and slimline plates. So pricing is sharp and even back then for the money I'd pay the extra few grand to upgrade into 18inch pilot sport 4, and a 2.4l engine! Professor google is telling me that top spec 86 $39,637.49 in 2012 is worth $46,269.90 today due to inflation. I can tell you that Subaru have only 500 car allotment through to July next year, and 400 of those have already been pre-ordered. I think it goes on sale (online) tomorrow at 11pm and those last 100 or so will probably be gone that day. So if you haven't pre-ordered, maybe call one of the the bigger dealers and get that in early. 1k deposit, but its is (or make sure it is) refundable pending test drive and finance. |

Also.
Apparently the AU models come with a built in GPS (not just apple/andriod), but sometimes I think my dealer salesman isn't 100% on point, the number of times he's told me its got a turbo isn't funny. He also said its 228hp (so US spec), and they will be offering a range of additional accessories. I guess tomorrows page will confirm all the details. |

I put an order in through a dealer near me a few weeks ago but no confirmation on if I have an allocation or not, will reach out tomorrow. Hopefully if anything I just have to be flexible on colour/model

I'd call your salesperson as early as you can. Like I said, only 500 cars till mid to late next year. That being said, you are probably fine. I think because I deposited before there was that official expression of interest, they probably just needed to get my stuff into the system before tomorrows event. |
