But every little electronic gizmo adds price. As was noted in a different thread, push start doesn't just affect the one button on the dash, it affects other locks, the cost of the key, etc, etc. There's a reason the models of the 86 with this cost more, and part of that is this.
My take on it (and that's all it is) is if I wanted those features I go buy the car that has them. I don't want them, so the FR-S meets my needs. The same with the HIDs and the NAV and the leather seats all the other items in the BRZ.
If the FR-S had all these things, I'd be asking how can I delete them for credit.
GMs OnStar is another example of that. I've owned lots of GM products and am a huge Camaro/Corvette fanboy, but I won't buy a new one because I don't want it and they won't delete it.
Again, just my opinion, your opinion may vary.
