Mongo, congrats on the new car! I shot you a PM.

Just heard today: ETA is October the 9th through 15th. So just 2 more weeks with the AP1 - gonna miss That engine. But looking forward to That handling.

Have ordered the Tail Pipe Cutter Assembly and the 17" Sti Wheels in dark grey from japan - figure there shouldn't be to many other BRZs - or worse civics out there with them ;-)

I flew to Albuquerque on 9/21 and drove it home over the weekend - Couldn't find any locally.

[DarrenDriven]

That sounds fun! I sold an AE86 back in the day and a kid flew from Albuquerque and drove it back from Portland. The cycle is now complete.

I've cancelled my order for the white one, which still had nowhere close to an ETA for delivery, and now will be getting the black sometime in the next two weeks. Black was my second choice anyway, but chose white because I hadn't seen a black one in person. I saw a black one in Myrtle Beach on vacation last week, and wow...very nice. No regrets in changing colors, and maybe I'll actually get my car before the sun disappears for the winter.

Oh, I also ended up saving $2000. No dealer markup at Renton Subaru.

Further update! I was surprised this afternoon to receive a phone call from the dealer telling me my car had arrived! I took delivery at 6:35 this evening. The black is really, really nice.

[DarrenDriven]

Nice! I moved you from the pending list to the delivered list!

Congratulations! Let the cleaning obsession begin. I love my black 86 but it has killed my weekends.

Just got my 5-Axis Sept 8th...

[DarrenDriven]

Welcome! Now we have two black Five:AD cars running around Portland. @digital_assassin also has one. Where are your 5:AD wheels?

[sevenzro1]

So I got this car at Beaverton Toyota. I didn't preorder it I got lucky after someone didn't buy their preorder as they moved out of country and I showed up at the right place at the right time. The dealership put the 5 axis kit on it after the preorder guy didn't pick it up. I had the option of getting the rims but I declined as I knew I wanted to do aftermarket rims myself.

Put a deposit down Monday at Gladstone Toyoto for a white 6MT
Not sure when it'll be in but I'm ready and waiting!
