Yes, it's a little shorter than my usual 12 month holding period due to economic considerations. Fortunately, I'm able to buy at fleet pricing so should come out about break-even, fingers crossed.

Doesn't seem worth it unless they have some cool his headlights adjustable like the brz. But that's just my opinion, everyone likes something different.

Haven't heard anything about that. Would be fun to have some sort of identifier. How about glowing "M" badges front and rear?

Haha, no glowing badges this time hopefully :p But yes, I hope there is some identifier so you can say you have #XXX out of 2000.

The 10 series had this, correct? I hope mine comes with some indications that it is a special edition other than the fact it is a GT86 with Scion badges.

This is pretty much the color I'm set on and I don't really want to purchase a BRZ.

Why are you referencing overseas color names? In any case, it looks like US will get Asphalt, but not Canada. Just get a BRZ Limited in DGM if it's really that important.

Right. Besides the exterior glowing badges, there's a small numbered plaque below the window switches that (you guessed it) glows in the dark.

LOL, what doesn't glow in that car? That's cool though, makes it feel special (apart from all the glowing!).

I'm just anxious to get it now, looks like it'll be a 2 month wait for Canadians. My dealer told me pricing and ETA will be released on or around January 27

For Canada, yes we're stuck with a limited colour palette. The US on the other hand isn't. If you want a Canadian Monogram, its a choice of white, black or red.

I thought I was bad for trading my FRS for a BRZ Limited. You win.
