I actually live in La Porte. The only meets you will get in the DP/LP area is Big trucks that high school parents bought for them or Camaro/Mustangs. Your best bet for import meets is gonna be in houston. There use to be a Car meet at the Target in kemah where all sorts of cars would show up, but the last time i went was about four years ago so idk if they still have anything there.

BRZ Limited SWP MT 6/4 from Gillman Subaru Southwest

Patio · 06-26-2012, 03:14 AM

Also BRZ limited MT SWP. Got it 6/9 from Gillman Subaru North. Mine wasn't going to be in until August and was lucky to get the call that someone backed out.

That sucks but thanks for the heads up. Guess I'll have to hit up Cars and Coffee meets to find some people.

My salesman was Mike LeRoy (or Le-Roy?). Not sure why you didn't get the call. I told him what color, trans. and trim I wanted and asked him to call me if anyone backed out. He mentioned he'd already called quite a few people and I asked him nicely to stop and raced up there before anyone else got there.

Paid MSRP, as promised by Mike. Really friendly people and can't really think of a single complaint.

Thanks! i assume i didnt get a call because it wasnt the color that i had ordered

I have a different salesman, but he had also promised me MSRP, but having a forum members confirmation is much better than a dealers

My A/C at my condo went out, and it will cost me the $6k to replace. So, there is a DGM BRZ Limited Manual available at Gillman Southwest that is coming in 2-3 weeks. The only option I added was the auto dimmer on the rear view mirror.

Idea...don't spend it on A/C stick it out for 2 months or 3 months (maybe less cause optimisim is awesome) and then get ur BRZ when u get hot take a ride in it. Problem solved!

But all seriousness damn that sucks. Maybe it'll be a good thing and you'll be ready for it when the craze dies down and you can haggle.

I already tried one week, and it was the hottest week this year. I'll probably get it in a couple of years when they bump up the hp.

Any chance I can grab that spot from you, and do you know if it will be for MSRP? Everyone I've spoken to has told me 5-6k above.
