Thanks a bunch for lining up all the facts and numbers

The OP question was:

Personally, and selfishly; NO. I don't want to see that.
It'd reduce the second-hand value of the GT86 I have ordered and will pay full Norwegian taxes for.
(I may want to sell it at some point, although it's hard to imagine now.)
And I like the GT86 just as it is, if anything I'd like just a little bit more power.

I do, however, think Toyota/Subaru would be able to sell 2-3 times as many of these cars in Norway if they did this. Easily.
And I would like to see more of my fellow Norwegians being able to enjoy these machines.
