Ok, I can sympathize on that, but you guys do know that in NA an average car is something in the neighborhood of $28k. So the BRZ Limited (from what we know) would be considered an average car. So...

and lastly some people just prefer a turn key. its like the whole paddle vs stick thing. No matter how much more efficient/convenient/beneficial shift trannies are some people just preffer stick. I admit im biased towards turn key but not simply because of blind ignorance, there are legit reasons to prefer it.
Now I can fully understand someone's preference towards one thing or another as we all have our likes and dislikes. :happy0180:
