But with the BRZ and the higher trim approaching $30k, there are bound to be buyers who would reconsider sprinting a few bucks more for something else with more power, luxury, cachet or practicality in a Lexus, Bimmer, Merc e.g. Or a low-miles used model. I'm one of them and probably would if my BRZ order falls through. Or I may just go to a bare bones FRS which was my original intent before I learned and gotten seduced by the greater creature comforts of the costlier BRZs.
Actually its more like $28,250.00 but I do understand your position that it is approaching $30K with tax and license. But even at close to 30K I feel that the BRZ Limited is a very good value. Love all of the features that the Limited has in my BRZ Limited.
