not a fan of the brz I take it?
 
I'm sure plenty of Subaru fans will chastise me for that, but this is a Honda forum so...
This BRZ reminds me of Honda's S2000, meaning that it seems boring. Maybe it's fun to drive, but I'm not moved in the slightest. Well, maybe a little bit because I suddenly need to poop.
And like sonej4 said, whatever dealerships do stock them will just mark them up into the world of oblivious apathy.

Certainly more than the BRZ, yes, but boxier styling has never appealed to me.
The one thing I do like about the WRX is the numerous packages available.
 
wait but isnt scion also releasing the same car just different badging? Im sure there would be more than enough since scion is also releasing this model.
 
scion is releasing essentially the same car... minor differences.
 
I'm ok with no BRZ for me

FHI Started Production of the Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86
- Line-off ceremony took place at the Subaru Main Plant in Japan -

Tokyo, March 16, 2012 – Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd. (FHI), the manufacturer of Subaru automobiles, announced that it held a line-off ceremony at Subaru's Gunma Main Plant (Ota-city, Gunma Prefecture, Japan) with Toyota Motor Corporation (TMC) President Akio Toyoda and honored guests in attendance, in commemoration of the production start of the Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86.

FHI and TMC first agreed on business collaboration in October 2005. After the companies expanded their cooperative ties with new agreements related to development and production in April 2008, they then began four years of development. The completion of this joint-development product also marks a great achievement of the alliance between FHI and TMC.

At the ceremony, TMC President Akio Toyoda said, "I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the ceaseless efforts of all FHI people and staff who were involved in the development, production and preparations for both models. The Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86 not have been successfully developed without collaboration between FHI and TMC. We started the alliance for mutual growth in 2005. Now I'm delighted to see this moment that our alliance surely bore fruit."

FHI President Yasuyuki Yoshinaga, after extending his gratitude to all participants at the ceremony, said, "the car symbolizes our corporate strategy in two significant aspects: good progress of our alliances; and advancement of our "select and focus" approach. The start of production today made a huge step for us, but it is not our goal. By constantly refining both models, TMC and FHI hope to nourish each model to be loved by customers all over the world for a long time to come."

Subaru Gunma Main Plant, where minicars were previously manufactured, was recently renewed for the Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86 production. FHI plans to produce the Impreza at the same plant by March 2013.

FHI offers "Enjoyment and Peace of Mind" to its customers through the Subaru brand statement "Confidence in Motion" and its consistent approach to "Engineering excellence".
