It wasn't too bad, I bet if we had our new cars here, they'd drive awesome through the stuff today. Also, the wet, soppy snow allowed me to work on our website and stay on the forum all day long .

MSRP. OTD will vary state by state. Remember those are not official prices. They are supposed prices that my Subaru guy heard from regional. No real difference from what we have heard in the past.

Ah. Gotcha.

Say, how are taxes calculated for car purchases? Is it just the regular sales tax in that city?

I think it will be:

25k premium
27k limited

Give or take 1k

I think that would bring the FR-S right in at 23,000 to 23,500 which is fully where I expect it to be.
If it comes in like those prices you have listed. Then when you take the mark up out of MSRP that would make the invoice of the Premium not that far off a FR-S MSRP/sale price.

Ahhhh...yes. Now I see. I thought your 82 degree temps were wearing on you and it was Snoopy's MN weather check time.

Exactly. Invoice is usually 6-7% lower than MSRP for Subaru. Obviously depends on model and trim.

That makes me think even more those prices are right on. High enough for them to maximize profits with out scaring people away from the true "affordable" sports car.

I think Black is one of, if not, the best color for both of these cars, alongside the DGM imo

Totally agree, black was my second choice after DGM...hard to clean, but looks oh so sweet.

Silver always looks best in the ALL of the photos though, you gotta admit. IIRC, we've never complained of angles/lighting/etc whenever silver pix show up lolz.
