LOL - any WRX buyers have got very sore rear ends at the moment.
I figured with high demand and low volume they'd go for a lot more than this - but of course now with the Evo hatchet job out demand might drop, especially if other comparos sing the same tune. They aren't using the terms "premier" and "sport-tech" as model designations any more it seems from that press release - "sport-tech" is now an option package. So this will put a base model BRZ SWP at $2312 more than I am paying for a FR-S Whiteout with the upgraded stereo (group buy). For that I would get: - nicer seat fabric - cheesy silver plastic dash - different front end (pro/cons to both IMO) - slightly nicer IP - lined trunk hood - HIDs - nav - LEDs - more understeer ("boring below the limit" - Evo) - additional badge snobbery points Have to give this some thought. "Subaru's tradition of outstanding value" - press release |

Well I'll probably save on insurance on the long run because scion is more expensive to insure. All the highschool students and college students(myself included, but choose to go with the BRZ just to say "I HAVE A BRZ FULLY LOADED"). Its been highlighted in many threads that Scion will be more expensive to insure compared to other brands. On the other hand, its the same car different companies, so it would be interesting to see insurance costs. |
