There is no invoice price. Everybody pays MSRP for Scion.

And I cannot wait for all the self-righteous comments like this to disappear, as hopefully all you 'actual enthusiasts' will be busier out enjoying your cars in an enthusiastic manner instead of telling us all just how deserving and clued up you 'actual enthusiasts' are.

All though any true enthusiast will tell you until you import a Caterham and have that as your daily driver, you are just a limp wristed wannabee

For around the same price my Celica MSRP'd at in 1999 fully loaded but with more horsepower, a better power to weight ratio, RWD, and probably a ton more aftermarket support I don't really see the problem for myself. I can afford it.

The pricing isn't great but neither is it terrible - I'm still interested Scion.

Most of the rumors have always been between 23-25K yet most wanted it below 23K!

The problem is.... well it will be 1.5x of the US pricing when it comes to middle east

So basiclly if the brz is ~27k in US, it will be ~40K down here
I was hoping for $35k

Some people in this forum will take the price real personal

This or WRX is gonna be my second car and seems like ill take this one since WRX don't come with auto.

i used to think like you, but from the announcement they want to sell 100,000 units annually worldwide, it makes me to think they want to market this as a mass production car, which S2000 certainly wasn't.

Honestly the difference between 22k and 25k really isn't that much. I have a hard time believing the people who were about to spend 22k on a brand new sports car can't scrape together the change for a 25k brand new sports car. If you really can't afford the 3k difference, just wait for a used one. Everyone will be able to enjoy this car, 25k is a very attainable price for a sports car, especially in today's market.

Pricing works for me better chance for me to get my hands on one finally!

If I dont get this car, it will be the totally redesigned Porsche Boxster this summer!
(depending how my shares of facebook do)

as others have said, the price is reasonable. sure i would have preferred it lower, but it is reasonable. but i do curse this country for it's stagnant wages which aren't rising as fast as inflation and it's weak economic policy for keeping the dollar so low. there's no benefit for a weak currency unless you export a lot, but this country doesn't manufacture anything to export!

i need to make more money...

I don't understand everyone's complaints with the pricing. Look at the Mazda RX-8, it's base price is $26,795 and is very similarly equipped to the FR-S/BRZ. I have driven an RX-8 and while the interior was very nice, the Subaru BRZ I sat in blew it away quality and layout wise. This car should be compared with the Mazda Miata and RX-8 and that makes its $24,200 base price pretty good for what you are getting. Sure, I would have preferred a lower price, but after sitting in the car (and hopefully after driving the car) I think it will be worth the price.
