I think we will get them as options...or be able to order them from Subaru parts department and put them in. Same parts. It's just an AC control panel....could plug right in...

Then you're too serious or maybe try to convince people that less is more.
Not everyone wants to buy a car because of its commercial.

I'm not sure about other people, but commercials and how the company present the car to me. Communicate messages to me and such, But I always thought I was kinda different. I really liked how Subaru did these commercials and their BRZ movie, it communicated to me about a caring car company that's in love with their boxer and how they are proud of it. They used soft music and a good story telling to tell you about their cars.

I been following the BRZ development since 2007 so seeing that it's getting decent commercials, That feels good. I almost feel as good as that pop star and her white BRZ in the commercial lol

I'm sorry and I don't mean to offend anyone but this was corny, I laughed. This is pure marketing nonsense. It was well directed, acted and produced however.

For me at least, it'll come down to the final price. If I can get the Subie for less than the cost of upgrading the Scion to what I feel balances out, then obviously I'll take the Subie.

According to reviews I've read online they are almost the exact same car, so for me since it'll be a daily driver and weekend track runner I'd rather something I can love for many, many years.

Now the only way to know for sure is to test drive both of them and put some careful thought and consideration into the decision. All I was saying is that for now, I like the BRZ more... (which is odd because at FIRST I preferred the 86).
