Will Canadian pricing be released tom too? If Scion does Canada a solid and makes pricing on Par, I will buy this car, if not...

But then again I can imagine the bitching & moaningg.



26500 is still pricy at a low. Thats what... 32 on the road? 8-10k extra still gets me a nice 128. Decisions.
I drove my buddies 128i...IMHO it's definitely not worth the extra 8-10k. Sure the power is better, and you are getting an inline 6, but that's about it. A Japanese sports car will be a much better investment down the road than a BMW. And in terms of handling, i wouldn't be surprised in the FRS handled as well, if not better. Plus the 128i has no LSD, and good luck trying to fit one aftermarket...it's almost impossible....and under hard cornering the car looses traction.
