It's 25-50$ cost to add camberbolts front, $230 for rear LCA like SPC. Imho not unreasonable cost for the hose 1/10 of owners, that may need it for something more then DD.

First: The Miata is equally cheap and has always had camber adjustment. Second: Having the correct alignment for the conditions is import for daily driving. It's quite reasonable to offer zero camber adjustment on an econobox, but the BRZ/86 is billed as a performance car. If there's no adjustment on the WRX, that's equally ridiculous. Having to spend over $250 dollars and a couple of hours of your time to have access to a basic alignment parameter is unreasonable.
Like I said, this issue won't stop me from buying one of the twins, but it doesn't fill me with respect for the design.
