The FR-S sells for $15k less than a standard GT 86 so let's say a TRD equivalent in the US would cost roughly $34.8k.

STI offers equivalent parts with similar prices compared to TRD so a BRZ STI version might cost around the same. I wonder if a comparably equipped BRZ STI for roughly $34.8k would be feasible in the US market.
thts what i was thinking...i just looked at the WRX and compared its price jump to STI....If I'm gonna pay more then ill need a faster engine
