On a more serious note, dealerships will price cars over $100,000 to get their listings to display first when sorted by price. Unless you're browsing for for a Mk IV Supra Turbo with a manual and targa top. Then they probably mean it.

I understand why they would want to be at the top but can not comprehend the purpose behind wanting to be know as high priced.

Think whoever typed that price just hit the 7 too many times anyway. Although it certainly did get attention.

Typical subaru marking up their cars... Walked in for a BRZ one time and it was for 32k for a limited. not a series.blue. He said it had special features such as heated seats and the push button start blah blah and I told him it's a limited and he agreed. I showed him the MSRP for it and he said it's this price because it's the only one left on the lot.

Doesn't surprise me
