  • $22,200Starting MSRP1
Equipment Highlights:

  • First-ever 305 HP, 31 MPG V6
  • 6-speed manual transmission
  • HID Headlamps
Your right its cheaper or about the same..

Its $24999 with the V6 performance package. (Which you need in the mustang)

I think scion messed up on the pricing....

If you bought it from a dealer, it's marked up. I consider any option that I don't want as mark-up, therefore every car has mark-up.

Finally, someone releases the price...That's a bit high though, especially when I could get a GTI for almost 1-2k cheaper from past negotiations I've had. But I would rather pay more for a better handling rear wheel drive sports machine than a hot hatch. This price plus low production volume may end up making the car more expensive over model years too, depending on the demand.
Welp don't know about the scion, still hoping BRZ is not super expensive. Gonna have to come down to the test drive over the summer...

I'm not surprised. Traditionally low output sporty cars cost more than the RWD medium sized high powered sporty cars. The old celica could be optioned out to 28k with FWD and 180hp. Also my car when brand new was 21k so I knew there was no way in hell a car with a better engine + D/I and RWD would cost 22k. ZGrinch is so right about price expectations.

Meh who knows, I might just wait for a used one, but $24k...seriously Scion/Toyota? Reminds me of Audi charging $60k for a car with 350hp *coughS5cough* So not worth it, but people will buy it.

You have them remove the item or don't charge you. I've purchased multiple new cars and never pay for what I don't want and certainly will never pay a markup.
