Pre-orders 2012, exchange/cancellation - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

TriForce · 05-21-2012, 06:44 PM

Hey guys,
I was looking at a few recent threads, and some people seem to be either displeased with their pre-order choice (color/trim/tranny) or want to cancel their pre-order all together.

Unfortunetaly dealerships decline any changes to the pre-order since most of the vehicles are already in the production.

So I was thinking of making a thread where people could exchange their pre-orded vehicles or maybe tell others about their cancelations.

For example:
- You list your state
- Your dealership
- Vehicle you pre-ordered (i.e. WRB/manual/limited)
- Vehicle you want (i.e. SWP/automatic/premium)

So this way if someone wants to swap with you, you could cordinate it in this thread.

Also if you decided to cancel your pre-order, you could also list it here, so that other members of ft86club :happy0180:could get an opportunity to get your vehicle, as opposed to some random person.

I know some people posted similar info in the "List of Dealership Allocations" Sticky but I thought it would be easier to have separate thread, just for this purposes.

This is a good thread, thx buddy!

I guess I'll start. Depending on when the cars come in, I might back out, so I'll post this for ppl who might be interested in picking one up in case that happens.

-California
-Irvine Subaru
-SWP BRZ Limited 6MT
-$100 deposit (paid)
-#10 on SoCal Groupbuy; supposedly #10 on the pre-order list.

-California
-Toyota of Pasadena
-Asphalt FRS 6MT
-$500 deposit (left a check)
-#4 on preorder list @ the dealership

Please PM me if you would be interested.

EDIT: Forgot to say that they're both "AT MSRP."

- WA, Renton
- Renton Subaru
- Black Limited MT
- I already have my BRZ
- #6 at the dealership, should arrive next month

PM me if interested

DeepHunta · 05-21-2012, 09:20 PM

I will most likely cancel my FR-S pre-order since I finally have a VIN and ETA for my BRZ. If anyone wants to take the FR-S I pre-ordered then you more than welcome to.

- WA, Belleuve
- Michael's Scion/Toyota Bellevue
- FR-S/Ultramarine/Manual
- $500 deposit (paid but refundable of course)
- None, will be getting my BRZ as planned.

Shabui · 05-21-2012, 09:27 PM

- CA, Monrovia
- Subaru of Monrovia
- white auto limited
- left $500 deposit (check) but wont be cashed
- none, got a G37 instead

PM if interested

- Medford, Oregon
- Southern Oregon Subaru
- GBS BRZ Limited 6MT
- Pre-ordered through a dealer in Portland instead after ridiculous markup (7k over MSRP)

If someone's willing to pay that much, they still have it on order...

WRXGuy1 · 05-22-2012, 03:36 PM

I'm not sure if you want people who are definitely getting out of their pre-orders or ones who may as well after the test drive, but I am only going to get the BRZ if it's a dream to drive, so there is a good chance it won't live up to my dreams.

Goffstown, NH
Subaru of Keene
GBS Premium MT
Arriving next month

I don't think it really matter if you made a decision or not.
Local member who might be interested in your car

, can always send you a private message, to check on availability.

Having a few people/options on a "radar" so to speak, might benefit some folks who desperately want to get this car.

SORRY NOT AVAILABLE DEALER IS A LIAR

davesrave · 05-22-2012, 05:54 PM

I won't know for sure until the test drive, either. It amazes me that so many are so sure of their trim choice, color choice, and transmission choice before ever laying eyes on one (at least I haven't)! I'm pretty sure I want one, and I've arranged for one to be here in June, but, if I'm putting $30 grand out, I want to be sure. I certainly don't want any regrets.

Double4Free · 05-23-2012, 12:01 PM

If your in the chicagoland area and want a firestorm FRS 6MT by June 1st PM me ASAP :]

TriForce · 05-24-2012, 04:59 PM

- Atlanta, GA
- Classic Subaru Atlanta
- SSM BRZ Limited MT (pre-ordered, $500 refundable deposit)
- I want to switch to WRB MT, doesn't matter Limited or Premium
If anyone is canceling theirs in GA/FL/SC or wants to switch let me know

hoonagin · 05-24-2012, 05:17 PM

How many of you have dealers who will actually transfer the order and not just pass it on to the next person waiting in line?
