FRS Price Hike
 

So i have been bored these past two days and i decided to check auto trader to see how many were available within a 50mile radius. I used autotrader to locate my FRS by the way. The cheapest price i saw was 26,030 for manual when they were originally 24,900, at least thats what mine was a week ago. They have a blue auto priced at 28,160 in one dealership. I think what some dealerships are doing are adding accessories automatically to the car and trying to force people to pay for them if they want the car.

accessories and other ridiculous add-ons like nitrogen in the tires and pinstriping

Bespoke add on ? Rust proofing?

funny u say pin stripes because when i got mine there was a blue auto with it on, scotch guard, and some drive it thing where its lo jack on your phone..they wanted 29k

F*CK everything about this. :mad0259:

Yeah, I think that's what you'll find when you shop dealer lots... Unless someone ordered one basic like mine, but the deal fell apart and the car would then be available.

I think you may have to order one in order to have a better chance in having one without any extras to the cost especially...

Fortunately, the MSRP on my ordered FR-S was $24,985.

you can avoid all this by ordering one just the way you like it... at least one dealership in Houston, TX has told me they are currently taking 3-6 weeks to get new ones in.

This is why I ordered mine. No markups. 24,900 + delivery + 5AD spoiler. Only the options I wanted.

exactly how i got mine. Someone ordered theres and they never got approved for the interest rate they wanted and i got lucky!

Don't forget to use your college graduate or military discount if you qualify for either of those!

Another vote for ordering, you get exactly what you want, nothing less, nothing more.

That scenario can always be a possibility, therefore I wanted to point it out... Although it wasn't the case for me, and I awaited taking delivery of my order... Reason to be thankful, nevertheless.

Yeah I got mine due to the deal falling apart for the person who ordered it. It came with the upgraded radio(don't have an iPhone, so I didn't care), mud flaps, and tinted to SC regs. I like it though, it's a red MT. I was marked to 26,852. Not too bad.
So right now I'm one of the few luckiest people in SC because it doesn't matter if you can afford it, but good luck finding one for sale. The southern region where I live isn't going to get very many shipped for a while. According to Toyota.

For the 1k discounts they only apply if you financed though Toyota. They offered 10% with 2k down. I went to Navy Fed and got 3%.

I wouldn't mind if the dealer wanted to charge extra and convert it to a GT86. ;)
