Um, could you dumb it down a bit for me please?
What I was getting at, is for the 'average' buyer there is not a lot of difference between the two vehicles 'on paper'. So people that are saying $25k for the FR-S when the $19k tC looks 'the same' for Joe Average and Suzie Secretary will mean a quick death from poor sales for the FR-S, n my opinion.
There's been a lot of competition comparison here but none so far have really looked at how the pricing between the tC and FR-S will play out to someone looking for a sporty coupe and not super hyped about the dynamics. Big difference is if they don't like the FR-S, it's easier to check out the tC beside it, than to drive over to the Ford or Mini dealer.
