Dealer has 2 FR-S
 
My local stealership has 2 FR-S both in automatic :/ White and black. They were bothed marked with a "Market Adjustment" of 3999 and 5000? I thought Scion had true pricing? What happened to that? :) Just wanted to let anyone know in the Tennessee area that was looking for an automagic. Cool Springs Toyota/Scion.

these dealership ought to be reported to Scion USA or just blew them up sky high! :paddle:

Scion does have true price. All that means is that the dealer is required to post that markup on the website when you look up the car. Scion/ Toyota cannot legally force anyone to sell a car for a specific amount of money - its actually not legal (price fixing).

Punish them in the best way possible - buy your new FR-S somewhere else.

Doesn't Apple force it's merchants to sell at a specific price, as part of their contract?

Price fixing is an agreement between two different manufacturers as to the sale price, not the manufacturer and it's distributors.

The kind of mark-ups I've been seeing have me considering buying other vehicles. The FR-S is great, but for +30k it is not worth it. It is neither luxorious enough, nor fast enough. Yes, it handles great, but that doesn't impulse me to dump +30k.

The idea was for a Light, RWD, Fun, and Affordable. I think I stick to my current 01' Corolla 2zz swap for a little while longer.

Does anyone know if one of these Marked Up Scions have sold?

Be patient...there are boat loads more of these cars coming...these dealers will drop their mark-ups soon. I know some people from Florida have actually purchased from neighboring states at MSRP just to avoid the BS Florida dealership markups...
