Everytime I read online how people from the states complain about MSRP, they don't realized how good they already have it as cars are quite inexpensive compare to a lot of other places around the world.
The Zupra will cater to the hypebeasters for a while before the prices become stable.

The big problem when comparing prices is people only look at the dollar value of the product. It isn't that simple and prices can not be compared in isolation of all other factors. There are many things that impact prices in different countries and the dollar value of products reflect these. We do not pay more for cars in Canada when you consider such things as cost of living and mean income. In fact even though our dollar value appears higher we actually pay considerably less for things than they do in the USA. It seems like we pay more but we also make more so it all balances out.
