OP has a very valid point.

With all honesty, it's cheaper grade b/c it's built in a Subaru factory. I'm not being a d**k or anything, it's the truth.

Some of the quality issues such as the thin paint, interior crickets, random rear rattles were pointed out by previous Subaru owners here on this forum.

It's a shame that you guys pay 25K+ and MSRP for the FR-S, when an 18K Corolla has better quality. I test drove one and drooled the first time I saw one at the dealership. The more I got to evaluate it from the exterior and interior, the more I realize it a cheaper grade and not worth 25K+ sticker.
