I don't think it makes sense, but that doesn't mean that's not what they would do. I don't think $7k for the 'S' package that started this thread makes sense either. I know, $7k extra on an Aussie BRZ isn't the same, but what is, $5k? Still doesn't make sense to me. And if it is $5k for some suspension upgrades and a handful of aesthetic items, you better believe that a turbo trim is going to be price above that, especially since a turbo trim would most likely include suspension tweaks, brake upgrades and some different aesthetics...

You seem to think that I am arguing about what Toyota/Subaru could do. Don't get me wrong, I think that they definitely could come out with a turbo trim for $5k. I just think they won't and I think the price of this BRZ S package is some good evidence for that.
