PRICE REVEALED!!!! :D
 
http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2...-at-25600.html

Prices of the new GT-86 sports car will start at $25,600 for a bare-bones “Customize Grade” model. when fully loaded with all available options, a GT-86 Limited edition will set you back a staggering $38,200.

Dealers in Japan have already begun accepting orders as the Toyota GT-86 will officially be available in the Japanese domestic market starting March 12. Meanwhile, the Scion FR-S is expected to be released in June for the United States. An official price in North America has yet to be announced but Toyota claims the FR-S will start below $30,000.

it better be less than 30 or I'm not buying

Lies? So they are going to sell me a car with no AC and unpainted bumpers for 25K? I am going to go out on a limb and say this is :bs:. We know JDM prices already and have compared them endlessly and everyone has come to the conclusion that they mean little to nothing for us here.

i hope the FRS starts at 20k and less then 25k

Old news. Pricing in Japan doesn't directly relate to pricing in the US at all.

@__@ I don't get it how is it going to be that much, is that Canadian dollars? American dollars , just converted rates. Nothing adds up in this article except FRS was said to be priced under 30K

C'mon autoguide you're better than this or at least I thought so. Just more bad auto journalism and another worthless thread.

Blame the strong Japanese Yen in the currency market. Nothing works right with direct conversion between Yen to USD/CDN or from EUR to USD. The price will be regional specific in order to compete with other vehicles in the market.

EDIT: and this is indeed an old news.
