Seat all the way down, seat base 2 notches from all the way back, wheel fully telescoped out and the seat back reclined more than I would like. If I put the seat back more upright my hair rubs the headliner.

Yeah my dealer still shows mine coming on Thursday Feb 24 but they also say its still being transported via rail.

It's been on rail since Feb 10. Washington to NW Indiana.

We shall see!

Appreciate knowing this. I've been frustrated that mine still says it's on the train despite being scheduled for today.

Going to go ahead and shoot my dealer an email to check in.

Let us know what they say.

Mine still shows on the train as of 2/16. Called dealer to check in and give some delivery instructions (dont wash, badge, or plate) and he says it still shows 3/3 ETA.

Ive got a room full of aero, other parts, dash cam, and an exhaust. I think looking at all this stuff is making it worse.

Expecting mine in May - June...

6MT Sport-tech in Crystal White Pearl
STI lip kit all around
Trunk spoiler
STI Flexible V-bar
STI Short Throw Shifter + Knob
Mirror and Lighting Package (test drove a GR86 with the Homelink mirror and decided I couldn't live without it. Amazing visibility out of the rear)

Got some other goodies as well to try and preserve the car. Already lurking on wheels and exhaust, really hoping Fujitsubo comes through with a titanium dual-exit.

Looks like there's quite a few BRZ in Vancouver already. I'm hoping I can connect with some of those folks once mine finally arrives!

Mine's still running a bit late. Talked to the dealer and the subaru customer care hotline and they both said the same thing- it's still coming, it still shows Feb 24 as the delivery date and that its normal for delivery dates to vary by a few days plus or minus.

Was really hoping it would arrive for pickup today (Saturday) but, no dice. I imagine it will show up next week.

RIP, hope you get it sooner rather than later. I have to drive 4 hours away for mine, and I'm making a weekend out of picking it up and putting all my parts on, so trying to plan around the uncertainty is frustrating.

4 hours is a legit drive. I'm only an hour from my dealer but I've been dealing with winter weather. Constantly checking the forecast to see if picking up the car would be delayed by snow (which would suck).

Next week the weather is in the upper 40s and even 55 on Wednesday. Maybe they've been delaying it so I'd have this nice weather to go along with a new car

My order is now "at railhead". Dealer still showing ETA of 3/3. Cautiously optimistic it's coming this week!

Got a non-update today from my dealer. Port date is still 5/14, no further updates or information available. So thus far, my timeline has been:

9/30: Put deposit down, asked dealer to time order so that car shows up in March
12/13: Car was ordered
1/4: Received port date of 5/14 but no VON (kind of strange?)
1/15: Received email from SOA with my VON (email was about the Share the Love event, not specifically to provide me with the VON)
2/1: Update from dealer saying no new info
2/28: Update from dealer saying no new info

I'm East Coast and ordered a Limited 6MT in Ignition Red. Seeing all these posts of cars spontaneously showing up was giving me hope my timeline would move up from May, but looks like I'll have to keep waiting! Oh well

Thanks for the information. I never received my VON and just went back and found it buried in one of those Share the Love emails back in January.

I ordered an Ignition Red Limited like you did on 12/29. Is there a place to check updates using the VON? Or do I have to wait for a VIN?
