1 Japanese yen = 0.0130 US dollars
as of 6:50pm on 1/14/12 So 2 million yen= 25987USD Cars in JP are usually more expensive than USA in general right? So maybe the rumored 24,999 MSRP of the FRS isnt too far off scratch that...its prob a lot cheaper seeing as the Limited top end one would convert to 38k USD which seems kinda redonk |

Only real way to know is to wait and find out when they officially release prices for the US

When comparing to other Japanese cars on the market with ours it looks like the RC may come in at around $24,000.
It's hard to know for sure, but I feel like that's pretty close. :/ |

I think we getting the G version. And since there prices are much higher that would mean low 20's in America.

Lets hope translation is 1 million to 10k USD with all said and done, so like 24.X K USD, can someone translate the column headers in the chart?

Yeah, always hard to do these types of conversions. You can compare yen to usd currencies but the dollar value in each country is different and won't be straight across. Like when they gave the UK price of like 3x,xxx it came out to $5x,xxx USD. Unfortunately, it doesn't work too well.
A better refrence would be finiding a car sold in Japan and the states. Take the price it's sold in japan for in yen and make a comparison to get an estimate for USD
