No, you don't get it with the car, because the paint, and the car, are produced by Subaru.
If you weren't in perth I would get you some, otherwise your local paint shop should. What colour is it?

Mate, my point is that Subaru don't give touch up paint out like Toyota do.... Hence why you didn't get any.....
I don't work for Subaru, so I can't answer that. Ask Subaru, or otherwise, your local paint guy...

czar07, if you don't any joy locally, check out Amazon, I got a 3-stage touch up paint pens for my Shiro (pearl) White 370Z.
Otherwise, if the dealer has it they'd probably make it locally but I got only 2 bottles - which means that they've mixed the pearl and white together and clearcoat is separate - it's not as good but it'll do for day to day small scratches and what not.
The 3 paint pens are pretty good if you are quite experienced in touching up - I've used it to touch up some scratches and I can't see it any more now!

I got my touch up paint from my local Subaru dealer, the Toyota one was less than useless. Cost about $20.
