The average OTD price here in Orlando (around Fall, last year when I was car shopping) was 29-30k. I'm pretty sure it varies depending on your location but I was speaking on behalf of the people in my area. That's a little high for MAJORITY of their target crowd. In fact, when I was purchasing the car, my salesman told me that more than half of the people I see driving TC's around originally walked into the dealer for an FR-S but drove off in a TC because of the price point.

The demand for the FR-S is there, but people just can't afford it.

Just to clarify, I'm not complaining about the price. I love the car and I feel as though it's worth every penny.
