I hate to be Captain Obvious, but the 4th and final sentances of my quote in your post is the answer. The FR-S will be relatively low production, and that means the economies of scale aren't anywhere near the level of the Mazda6, Corolla, or any other mass produced whatever. Like I keep saying, the FR-S will be just like a Miata coupe', so expect Miata-esque pricing and similar feature content. This isn't rocket science, you just have to pay attention a little bit.
