    Subaru Of America, Inc. Media Information One Subaru Drive Camden, NJ 08103 Main Number: 856-488-8500 CONTACT: Michael McHale (856) 816-1231 [email protected] SUBARU BRZ NAMED A 10BEST CAR BY CAR AND DRIVER MAGAZINE • All-new 2013 BRZ sports car makes its debut on 10Best list Cherry Hill, N.J., Dec 6, 2012 - Subaru of America, Inc. announced that the all-new 2013 BRZ sports car has earned a spot on Car and Driver’s 10Best list. The rear-wheel drive Subaru BRZ delivers pinpoint handling precision and an unmatched driving experience for sports car enthusiasts of all skill levels. “The Subaru BRZ is a worthy addition to the 10Best list,” said Eddie Alterman, Editor-in-Chief, Car and Driver. "It has a low center of gravity, a perfectly balanced chassis, and not much else to get in the way of all that. This is a driver's car pure and simple; a powerful counterbalance to the forces of automotive bloat." Subaru developed the rear-wheel drive BRZ with the fundamentals of sports car design in mind: low vehicle weight, an ultra-low center of gravity and precision steering. Utilizing Subaru’s new naturally aspirated 200 horsepower horizontally opposed (BOXER) engine design, the BRZ is a sports car that does not sacrifice everyday comfort and practicality. With 2+2 seating and a folding rear seat, there is sufficient cargo space to transport four race tires and tools to track days. Combined with the Subaru brand's renowned safety and quality, the BRZ is a sports car with practicality as well as performance.

  • Behavioral Biases Meet the Market: the Case of Magazine Subscription Prices
    Advances in Economic Analysis & Policy Volume 5, Issue 1 2005 Article 1 Behavioral Biases Meet the Market: The Case of Magazine Subscription Prices Sharon M. Oster∗Fiona M. Scott Mortony ∗Yale University, [email protected] yYale University, fi[email protected] Copyright c 2005 by the authors. All rights reserved. Brought to you by | Yale University Library Authenticated Download Date | 6/21/19 8:01 PM Behavioral Biases Meet the Market: The Case of Magazine Subscription Prices∗ Sharon M. Oster and Fiona M. Scott Morton Abstract Using data from American magazines, we explore the relationship between newsstand and subscription prices and magazine characteristics. In particular, we distinguish between magazines that provide benefits in the future (investment magazines) versus those that are simply fun to read now (leisure magazines). A consumer with a present bias at the newsstand discounts the future payoff of the investment good but fully values the leisure good. This difference does not exist for subscriptions. Thus, the ratio of the subscription to newsstand willingness to pay for a magazine should differ between investment and leisure goods. We find that for magazines whose payoff is in the future, subscriptions are relatively more costly, ceteris paribus. This finding suggests that publishers reflect the present bias preferences of consumers in their price setting behavior. KEYWORDS: time-inconsistency, commitment, magazines, subscriptions ∗We thank participants in the Yale Applied Micro lunch, the NBER I.O conference, and the Harvard-MIT IO seminar for helpful comments. We also appreciate the advice of Stefano DellaV- igna, Ben Polak, and Jesse Shapiro. Christopher Kirkman and John Oster provided valuable re- search assistance.
