Sigh, first we waited and waited for the car...now we wait and wait for the price...

I highly doubt the FR-S will be 22k or less. Look at roughly what it's competing against (in the realm of compact, 2-door cars, with sporting intentions). Some approximate MSRP starting prices in the U.S.:
- Mazda Miata -- $23k
- Honda Civic Si -- $22k
- Honda CR-Z -- $19k or $20k
- VW GTI -- $23k or $24k
- VW Beetle Turbo -- $23k or $24k
- Mini Cooper -- $20k
- Mini Cooper S -- $24k
- Scion tC -- $19k
These are all the bare bones version of each model. Chances are, the FR-S will start at no less than $22k.
