Better options for you, sure. Whether or not a car is overpriced is entirely subjective though. Everybody has different wants and needs in a car. I am not in the market for a Camry, a WRX, a Mustang, etc. so comparing this car to those is irrelevant to me. I think it's quite reasonably priced, but I am also a reasonable person and did not expect a car like this to be priced at 20k. Again, if you think a Korean car or econobox offers more of what you want at a better price point then buy one. And if spending my money on the car that I want makes me a "fanboy" then so be it. You should stop by on the BMW, Porsche, Ferrari, etc. boards and tell them they're fanboys too on your way out.

This is exactly what I mean. You're comparing a list of features on an econobox to a sports car. Free market or not, the BRZ was never ever meant to compete with a Camry and if the latter is an acceptable option for you then just buy that, the BRZ is not what you are looking for.
