This would not impact their stock and if somebody wanted one enough to pay the premium and wait then it is a win all around. I would think that this could keep some sales that go to Subaru instead (or don't get made at all).
It's funny because I just talked to someone a couple of hours ago who had a new BRZ and they said they originally looked at the FR-S but it didn't have the features they wanted. Plus, the dumbass Toyota dealers around here slap tint and ghetto extras on all their new FR-S cars to get even more money out of them and charge an extra $50 for having nitrogen in the tires with ugly green valves. Is this even legal for dealers to do on new cars?

So they went to Subaru and they gave them a Limited model with everything for LESS than the price of a standard FR-S. The only reason Scion sells any of these things is because the front end looks better (or because customers don't know any better that there is a Subaru version that can be had for less). I've said it before and I'll say it again, Scion is the worst car brand in America and the Japanese that run Toyota should be ashamed of it.
