FR-S/BRZ release conundrum

Was working my way through the BRZ section of the forum and noticed that the BRZ is said to be "released" around May, according to this guy:

http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3134

So my question is, if the BRZ goes on sale first, which would you rather have, the BRZ or the FR-S? Given the prices being fairly similar (yes I know prices have not been released, I'm just speculating that they will be fairly the same, the Subaru being a bit more expensive)

I don't think the release date being a month apart should influence which car to get. Heck, we've already waited years for this car. Whats another month?

Dude they say end of may for the BRZ and first of June for the FR-S.

Also each Subaru dealer is only getting like 1 to 2 BRZ a month. Chances of getting one in the color you want are slim to know because you can't order the car at least in the first 6 months. This could all change but that is what dealers are saying now.

Scion dealers are still mum.

Nobody is getting any cars in April except for maybe the first 86 FR-S winners.
