Recent BRZ deals?

[Ved]

If you've recently purchased a new BRZ I'd be interested to know what deal/discount you negotiated. Ideally a manual Lux with metallic paint.

I was going to say check out Drive the Deal as they were showing as having £4k off a new Toyota GT86, but they don't see to list the Subaru on the site...

Way ahead of you on the 86 front. Currently I've had this via a broker on a new one with leather and nav (won't bother with the nav now so that's £700 shaved off)

12k per year
£3k deposit
£339 pm (£320ish with just leather)
36 months

£4.3k saving via DtD.

After discounts the 86 and BRZ are the same but I'm yet to actually get to a dealer and see what their finance terms are.

I would love to stay with Subaru but the Toyota seems to be an easier deal and also now comes with a spoiler as a free option so it'll save having that daft wing on the rear. Plus I think the cabin looks awful with that silver dash facia. But they do come in WR Blue... Hmm. Will keep you posted.

So is that £15k all in, to own it after three years on the list £22700 car?

No with a balloon of £10,500.

I've no intention of keeping it for three years and never do. Off to go look at a WR Blue on this afternoon to see how it compares.

Had a nice chat and a walk around a 2016 BRZ and there isn't any changes other than banishing that awful silver dashboard. It's now identical to the GT86 from what I can tell. Anyway, they wouldn't budge on price other than to offer their new car (which had chips off the wing and bumper) to me for £450 off - essentially giving me the paint for free. Wowzers.

So its not cheaper than DTD at all then?
It's actually £25500 to still have that car after 3 years where as its £20800 on DTD
So after 3 years if they are still selling for £14000 you lost £15000 but I would lose £6800

For a Lux vs GT86 leather both with metallic paint:

The Toyota is £22,865 with Drive The Deal
The Subaru is £22,558 with BroadSpeed

The difference over 3 years is their balloon and finance terms which puts the BRZ into silly land as there is nearly £3k difference in favour of the Toyota under the same conditions. I'd still rather have the BRZ.
