Although I know this is completely chalk and cheese, an SS Commodore is under 40k these days... WRX is around 44k...

Base model for around $34-35k and top model for $36-$38k would be reasonable. I don't think the top model has that much in it to command too much of a premium on the base, going on the JDM model specs. Of course if they manage to get the base model down to around $32k I'd be very happy. Considering a Rukus is a low volume import that Toyota sells, has a 2.4L donk, and has a pretty nice interior, and has a top figure of $32k, this is a real possibility to me. IMHO they're going to sell a lot more FT86's than Rukii if they can keep that price down.
