Whiteout used to be only $220. Maybe they increased the whiterestness of it! And having had a "base" FR-S and now having a 10 series I have to say I've enjoyed the headunit upgrade to the 6.1. I didn't mind the other one but the new one has several nice things like voice command, larger readout of course, I can surf the files via Bluetooth, it even shows podcasts separately, etc.

Is it me or was there a price drop? Does this not include other fees like delivery? Because here the manual was around 25k and the auto was 26k.

Maybe that includes the destination charge?

Thats what I was thinking, only recently have my nearby dealers dropped there prices by $1000, like one hot lava automatic car, was $26922, now its $25922, now that they are taking orders for 2014, they are simply removing the bullshit delivery charges and can still make a huge profit.

The price stated up there doesn't include the $700+ destination/delivery etc.

I was quoted $26,814 for an AT today. The $1000 difference sounds about right (though their pure pricing seems to be at $26,355 on their website).

If the BRZ doesn't get a price raise, it would much better deal to get a White BRZ over a White FRS. It's just so close in price.

Exactly why the GT86 in Japan is being rebadged as a Scion?

People are funny.

Actually the GT86 overseas has always had that, it was only the Scion FR-S that was stripped down from features. The 10 series have restored those "extra" features.

I know I was referring to the fact he said "then why is the scion a rebadged GT86" I meant to add "a rebadged GT86 without the goodies"
