Yes, that's one way to look at it, but true.
I take it this was high on sarcasm. Leather? On an FR-S? Srsly? I guess the Monogram Series is a dealer markup from the base? 
But on all seriousness, this is such a ridiculous spin on the truth. Yes, again, some dealerships do markup. But, again, by Pure Pricing policy, if the dealership throw in dealer installed equipment in one of them (like a remote start or aftermarket rims), the dealership now has to provide the same exact thing in all of the same exact year and model of that Scion it was installed in. The only way a dealer can get around that is to offer the remote start, rims, whatever as an addition to the purchase of the vehicle, meaning not pre-installed.
And just so people don't think what I say is heresay, this is direct from Scion's website.

My comment was not high on sarcasm but completely factual. Don't feel offended because the dealership that I was talking about is in San Jose on Capitol Expressway. I have never been to Alaska so I don't how you do things there. These cars were not Monograms... it was early 2013 and yes dealers installers two-tone leather on the seats and were charging (no kidding) up to $6000 markup for leather and "regional adjustment".
I think I did make a comment on the Dealership Blacklist thread at the time.
It would be a cold day in hell when stealerships will stop existing. Am I calling you one? Like I said before... I have never been there.
