South Coast Subaru reposted it. Read my RE: 2013 SUBARU BRZ above it for the back story.

Also Rick, the GSM at South Coast Subaru, told SoA that he would contact the person who ordered it, but did not.

Finally had the owner of the dealership, Matt, call and said they will not honor their previous agreement

Completely disappointed in the dealership and Subaru's enforcement of Subaru's Corporate Social Responsibilty policy. Makes me want to get a different car

Wait so this listing was pre-ordered by someone else and SC Subaru has not contacted that person and instead posted it on craigs list?

It was a preorder agreed to be sold at MSRP to the original person who ordered it. Posted on cl and another forum for sale the day before notifying the person who ordered it that it was ready. Then went to pick it up, threw in a $5,000 markup. Contacted SoA in which they pretty much said you are SOL.

WOW! Man WTF. I'm starting to hate this car like Lebron and Wade...too much HYPE....lol....

I think the market needs another manufacturer to make something equivalent to help the cause....

I know what you mean. This was to my friend. I have a preorder through another dealership, but I feel like I cannot support SoA or even Fuji Heavy (meaning frs too). Need some time to think about it

Totally, I could not believe how the owner of South Coast basically blew this off like it was no big deal. In comparison to the top level professional service we have received from Jeff at Longo Scion/Lexus/Toyota between test driving, information, and their enthusiasm for the car has been great. All FR-S' they have sold have been at MSRP with no hidden charges or add-on BS. Catch more flies with honey...

This all happened to me but with the FRS. Toyota didnt do much but say the dealership is allowed to price it as they please. I just walked down the street and purchased at msrp. Fuck you NORWALK TOYOTA!

Eddie wrote up a response to the response of why not to buy it from there. Complete sleaze ball saying that he did not know and that SC Subarua would always want to treat their customers great. Unfortunately it is no longer up. Their original ad is back up still though

oops, now it just got removed by flagging. Thanks for the support and will post up the link when it is back up

I don't really see what's wrong in selling what is yours. They can sell it for 1 million if that's what they want. There's nothing illegal that I see here. They are simply playing the game; they buy it and they sell it. One of you might have done this when XBOX360 and PS3 came out. You camped outside bestbuy, bought the item and sold on ebay for double the price. No, they did not flagged your ebay posting when you did this.

Grow up, flagging something on CL coz you think its expensive is just childish.

Looks like people are just jealous. I expected more maturity in this community.

This is like if Best Buy tried to sell PS3's and Xbox 360's to those people waiting in line for a huge mark up, not the other way around.
