The lack of competition and price-parity reduces sales of the product. If Toyota were charging a 50% premium on the 86 in WA, less people would buy it. Its a bit like people buying electronics overseas because of the unreasonable mark ups on some products in Australia, except this is not a case of higher landed costs, taxes etc - costs between Sydney and Perth are pretty similar.

Kinda makes you wonder how much the Americans are paying ~ sigh.
