I wish I didn't have to leave a non-refundable deposit so I could find an alternative somewhere else.

Pre-ordered March 23rd, no VIN, no ETA.

Weren't you number 4 on their list originally? Does that mean they've recieved/sold their first 3 orders? Either way, that probably bumps me to number 4... although I doubt that would make a difference.
I'm also regretting putting down the non-refundable deposit. But at the same time, the approximated August ETA gives me more time to sort out finances, trade in, etc... Or I'm just trying to justify to myself that I made the right decision. Who knows...

I was originally 2 out of 6. Then I heard they had 8 allocations, so 2 out of 8. When I spoke with James was week, he told me I was #1 out of 8. No sure what happened to the original #1.

Now Stivers has gotten a pre-ordered silver BRZ (don't know the pre-order number) and an "extra" Limited WRB BRZ, which is now sold.

I spoke with SOA and they said Stivers Subaru placed 7 orders, not 8. Not sure where 8 is coming from.

It would be nice just to get a VIN and ETA. I'll cross my fingers for a June/July delivery...I hope yours comes in by August.

I hope by this fall we all have our pre-ordered BRZ's! My CBS Premium with spoiler should get to Troncalli Subaru by the end of July if all goes according to plan. I'd be down for a local group photoshoot and North GA mountain drive if my BRZ is out of the break in period by then!

Yet another failure on Stivers Part. I'll have to let my buddy there know that they could have sold you the car and didn't.

I really hope that stealership closes soon. They suck at life.

Supposedly James spoke with SOA and was told that they couldn't sell the "extra" car to me as they would "get into trouble"...maybe lose an allotment?

I don't believe it. I believe they decided they could mark this "extra" one up and make some quick profit. Of course, just speculation on my part.

my contact up there says James is so full of shit it's not even funny. Typical sales person.

Blech... Hopefully we don't get screwed over in the end... Contacted SOA with my VON. They're going to get back to me by the end of the week with the status of my order, although if kwood doesn't have a VIN yet, I'm not getting too hopeful.

kwood9000 · 07-14-2012, 01:32 PM

Finally have an ETA of August. Recommend checking with your dealer or SoA.

Nice! Do you have a VIN? And did you get the info from James or SOA? I really need my car to come in now... my current beater is falling apart on me...

No VIN. SoA returned my call the other day and provided an estimate of August/September. James then emailed me with an update on Friday showing the output from the Subaru Ordering System with an estimated arrival of "Month of August-2012". Hopefully this doesn't change.

chandz05 · 07-19-2012, 09:11 PM

called SOA, and got a tentative ETA of August too

Looks like our cars are on the same boat. Should be getting the VIN within 3 - 4 weeks, hopefully

Doesn't sound like Stivers Subaru is a place I want to deal with.. I hope you get your BRZ soon though. Thanks for posting your experiences so others like myself will know.

Finally received my VIN and ETA (8/19)!
