Is the car coming in all Europe? Always in limited supply like gr86?

 

I received another call from another dealer, confirming the same thing as I said in the Original post. There is 90% chance the new BRZ will come to Czechia according to the salesperson. They expect to have official pricing in January. The speculated price is 43k EUR - 45k EUR including local 21% VAT.



I would say Czechia cannot be the only country importing the BRZ, the market here is small and there must be a larger international importer for Subaru. Considering the GR86:BRZ ratio is 3:1 in the rest of the world, I would say it will be more limited. But that is just my speculation.

 

We have that info for months.
Subara needs the Co2 supercredits from the solterra to sell the BRZ2.
Until last month the solterra was delayed, ebcause of loose wheels.
Toyota(builds the solterra) fixed that and now they can sell the BRZ2.

 

Wonder if it's worth the marketing budget as the time they can sell the car is rather short.

 

What the dealer meant was brochures, official pricing catalogs and such, not like a marketing campaign per se.

 

Great! Now you have to wait indefinitely to get one after pre-ordering

 

Man, this puts the wait list whining here in the USA into perspective. Hope you guys get your cars.

 

Hi!

Yeah, it is coming. To be honest according to my dealer my BRZ is already shipped to europe. Expected arrival might be this year.
As far I know this year 2 cars was sold in Hungary here, around 3-5 in 2023 and thats it. 20-30 for German market, a couple for here and there. Info was coming from Emil Frey salesman. If you guys have the chance to grab one I would highly suggest. Since subaru makes theese cars and they build on order, means if you put an order then you get one. No delays, no color changes, no random bullsh*t..
To be honest I am still a bit nervous about servicing, even more if they need anything to touch on the engine, but have more faith in a seasoned subaru technician than anyone on toyota side. The scarcity of this car might mean that only couple specialst will be recommended to deal with.

It's definitely coming to Switzerland as well.

By the way is there any chance to track the car with a VIN? Or any sort of mysubaru goodies like in North America to use?

 

Hello there!

I've spoken to couple dealers here in Spain and they didn't have much to say, two of them outright told me they know nothing and one of them did seem to know more and I gave them my contact details, they told me they would call when they have confirmation about it arriving here too.

My impression was that if it's also coming to Spain not many know about it right now in Subaru.

Nice! Hopefully we get some news here too!

 

This is really interesting, looks like I will regret getting the Toyota in the end

(no I won't, but BRZ in the "STI blue" really appeals to me)

 

I was able to order BRZ 2023 from a Polish Subaru dealer. No official info yet.

I read the rumor about BRZ selling in Europe, so I went to one and asked if this is true. They said that indeed it's true and they are about to order 2 or 3 cars. This was 2 weeks ago. Today I signed the agreement. I was told that the car should be in Poland in May 2023.

 

What is the price of the new BRZ in Poland?

 

couto, which dealer accepts your order?

 

Some news about my order. I was told the car havent arrived from Rotterdam, but hopefully I may receive it in January.

 

I feel that with the lack of marketing, it really helps the enthusiast who really follow this car. If you missed the GR86, you definitely need to contact your dealers to try and secure an early pre-order.

 

Here is the first official pricing available in Europe. Looks like the BRZ in Switzerland will be available only with the STI package.

Its just a night shot, but it’s happening!
Fun begins next friday.

 

Lucky you
Where in hungary do you live?

 

Damn good information. Do you know when the dealer made an order at the ordering system and what was planned start of manufacturing?

 

I was pretty lucky, I managed to get the info right when it appeared and the order was made during augustus, production was in october. I asked too how many cars will be available, if remember correctly one more is shipping here already and 5 more was told to be available by subaru, but they do not yet accept the orders for them. Its for Hungary, do not know what about other countries.

 

So these time fits what I've heard at the dealer. 2-3 months to production and another 3 for delivery. Looks yours is the first one in EU I've heard.

 

Dont know, but in Hungary the first for sure.
It even passed the GRs which were ordered in spring, months before me.

 

this must be dealer cars then... similar to the early GR86s... Regular customers order will come later I suppose

There are already some cars in Switzerland, but this is the first one I see in the EU. @focuspoke, did the dealer mention where from are these shipped? Is it from Nagoya like Toyota? Are they dropped at Zeebrugge or somewhere else?

 

Production was in Japan if I am correct Gunma plant and shipping arrived to Rotterdam 1,5 months later. But its just pieces I got from dealer. They are direct distributors of Subaru here, so I dont think there were much middleman.

Lucky you
Where in hungary do you live?

Will there be another round of BRZ's for Europe in the Spring of next year, or is this year the only one where we get some?

 

I think it cant be said for certainty. EU legislation rules will change from next year, which affects new cars (something with safety redtrictions). But in 2023 they still plan to take orders. I would suggest grab any possibility either GR or BRZ to get one. Individual used import will still be an option later, but thats another story..

 

@jacog asked one of the Polish dealers about BRZ availability at the beginning of December. They said: "5 cars available to order". I asked the same last week and the response was the same.

Still no official info about the car here SUBARU PL

that is not a bad price when compared to traditionally higher Austrian prices. It is actually cheaper than the GR86 Premium trim and only 1k pricier than the Base. However you could still get two BRZs/86s in Japan...

 

This is one of the first ZD8s in Czechia. But still no info regarding pricing and availability.

I can already smell the market manipulation and communication in person only lol…

 

Maybe they are trying to top Toyota in communication/distribution?🤣
I can't imagine having a car on the lot and not being able to price or sell it as a dealer.
And I don't get why Subaru acts differently in every country of Europe. In one country dealers take orders without known price in other countries you can officially buy the car. Somewhere else there are cars on the lot but you can't buy them and in most countries they just can't tell you anything 😶

 

Price aside, I think it's easier to buy a Pagani than this car in Europe 😅
