I ended up getting mine for 27250 plus tax for LTD 6sp with chrome fenders and a half clear bra installed(why would they do that).

I'll end up keeping the clear bra on for 2 years or so, then replaced and reconditioned with a full one eventually.


Still, i thought one hell of a deal. Would absolutely be worth it to try and get one from out of state and have it shipped.

this is true! ain't no shortage here! salesmen would much rather have the new "crosstrek",than a lot full of brz's

From what I can tell Central Time Zone states and New England is where you'll get the Most for your money.
true! no mark up here!. yankees are smart,in that they tell 'em to shove the car up their a** if they pull that s**t here!
