Enough so that it became a serious contender.

I told myself if I could find a white base MT as MSRP, I’d probably do it. Well, the dealer down the street where I had bought my Hakone happened to have just that. Have them a call. Told them what I wanted. Showed up. Went back and forth for maybe 10min tops and they got me what I wanted, to include the value for my Hakone I traded in, and MSRP for the new car.

So now I have a Halo 2024 GR86 and couldn’t be happier.

The dealers around me asking for %20 markups are asking only for the Trueno edition. He apparently told me I can give you a PP base or premium with msrp. According to the GR86 allocation list that someone shared (I found my car from there) there were only 4 premiums with PP.

So they know special edition is selling and they just wait for it. The maximum they went down from the 8.5K markup was 1500K

Ridiculous
