If the GT86 is $40,000USD, how much is a BMW M3? $90,000? It's all relative. Just to use an arbitrary example, in Sweden a GT86 starts at USD$48528 whereas an M3 starts at $106,826. In the U.S. the price of a BRZ Limited (since we don't have the GT86 to compare to) starts at $28,265 whereas an M3 is $60,100. They are both relative to each other; the GT86/BRZ costing about 45-47% what the M3 does. They just cost different amounts in different countries, as has been mentioned previously. It still offers the same great value for the most part. Because nobody wants a Civic anyway. :D

the m3 cost... 109k USD manual 115 auto

now back to the topic the spec of the gt 86 from my country is pretty much the fr-s. 17" wheels, need keys to start the car :( but the interior comes in red :DDDD now my dealer says that they can also get me the upper trim that cost 50k comes with push to start, but the interior is not the red cloth :( but a normal leather (its really hot my country so nahh) and the worst of the worst it comes in auto (toyota how can u charge me to take away the fun!!! )

and theres no miata in here, i haven't seen one in my country

and the others cars that are getting close to that price range are (but not considering them) evo x 50k-55 (around that) sti 60k 370z 55k

i havent drive a RWD so that makes my decision even harder
