I completely understand how it feels like waiting. But hang in there. Once you get it, u will know it is worth waiting for this car
$500 less than msrp and "almost" a free rear diffuser!? How did that happen? Any tips for when I finalize the sale on the day I pick up the car?

$500 less => almost free rear diffuser. Not $500 "and" free diffuser one of the reason in my case could be that it was automatic. So not so much people wanted it. Thats why I think I was able to negotiate.

Reason why I got auto:
I have driven manual whole my life. I wanted to try something diff.

Congrats!
that's what happens when you rotate your camera phone clock-wise instead of counter clock-wise to take a landscape shot

Man the WRB looks very nice, Congrats! The BRZ is really really starting to grow on me, I don't care what no one says. That black stash is not bad & gives it character.

did you pre-ordered or just one of the back out order? If it's pre-order you still did get to negotiation below MSRP?
