At best 1 tire rotation, so add 50 more.. so you might be at 230. $1,530 is no where near $2,000, and even $1,600 is closer to $1,300 than it is to $2,000.

Full synth changes are $70 at most oil change places. Regular oil change is like $40. Sure its cheaper to do it yourself, but it is a hassle for some people.

But yeah the BRZ is the better deal, actually I would go full BRZ limited..
