That's what I was thinking Wattie, after a few runs up the old road last winter :shock:

What's the difference between this and the Toyota? Badges?

There are subtle differences in the interior, tacho face is different, suspension is stiffer brakes are bigger than the GT Toyota
I am also going with the Leather/Alcantera seats rather than cloth

Cool, what's the wait time??? Better than the 12-18months touted for the 86 gts?

A couple of secret pics were taken of the bRZ on their test track with a bonnet mound/scoop ......... Like that wasn't going to happen at Subaru ;)

My delivery is listed as September 2013 :shock:.....but I have been told that they are increasing production to meet demand, currently it's 9:1 Toyota/ Subaru
But as I am not looking at another car it's all good...... I have been waiting for ages for a new smalish rear wheel drive car that didn't cost too much. :kuda:
