Subaru has managed to source extra production of its high-demand
BRZ sports car in February and March next year.
The extra allocation of 140 vehicles means customers due to
receive cars from May onwards will achieve better than anticipated
delivery dates.
Nick Senior, Managing Director, Subaru Australia, said: "We're
delighted that Fuji Heavy Industries (FHI) has recognized the
enormous demand for BRZ in Australia and allocated additional
production."
BRZ has been a runaway success since its July launch, selling
exclusively online.
Prior to FHI's extra allocation, the back orders were through to
November 2013, but Mr Senior says all customers from May next year
can expect an improvement in their car's estimated delivery
time.
Subaru's initial allocation of 201 cars to the end of 2012
sold-out after just three hours of going "live" on the web.
BRZ has a National Driveaway Price\* starting at $37,150, and
includes a three-year/60,000 kilometre scheduled service plan\*\* and
a five-star ANCAP occupant safety rating.
BRZ details can be accessed online from subaru.com.au, or
directly from www.buybrzonline.subaru.com.au
Customers can check their vehicle progress online to view
estimated time of arrival.
Subaru is contacting all customers awaiting a BRZ to advise them
