Question Price Increase for FR-S?

How long has it been $25,255 (according to Scion.com)?

BRZ Premium still shows as $25,495.

nobody is buying BRZ Premium. For those buying a BRZ, Limited is the way to go.

You included destination charge for FR-S but not for BRZ.
BRZ is $26,265 with destination charge.

Thanks for the link to the thread. I did a quick search and didn't see it. Probably because it hasn't been posted in for almost a month.

You're comparing "with destination charge" and "without destination charge" again.

Original = $24,200 + $755 = $24,955
New = $24,500 + $755 = $25,255

It looks like you're thinking it started at $24,200, increased to $24,500, and then increased again to $25,255.

Yeah, I was, then I realized I was and edited my post accordingly to only comment on the fact that the original thread hadn't been posted in for a bit, thus why a quick search yielded no results.

Oh ya, even your post I quoted has the updated post. What a timing. The other people who read my post must be thinking like "what is this guy (me) talking about".

I bought a premium because I didn't like the spoiler. (I also got the car for factory invoice price, which definitely impacted the decision)

I felt the same way, but then I wanted:

- Lit vanity mirrors (I believe lacking in the Premium)
- Puddle lights
- Dual-climate
- Nicer AC controls
- Nicely colored digital clock
- Leather/Alcantara (don't hate on 'em)
- Fog lights (Alaska necessity)
- Heated seats and side mirrors (also Alaska necessity)
- Push button start/stop with Bluetooth keyless entry (makes me giggle every time I touch my handle and unlock both doors)

I can get over the spoiler with all those other things added in.

Nobody huh

I purchased the premium so I would save money to put into other things for the car. Also I purchased the brz vs an frs due to knowing a Subaru tech and having one of the best subaru dealerships in the area.
