From my understanding:

MSRP

GC 2.0T= $24,250
FRS= $24,200


MSRP + dest fees

GC 2.0T= $25,215
FRS= $24,930 to $24,985 (depending on destination fees)


What was your question again?


Edit: Once the GC stock gets up to meet demand, can easily get a GC at invoice or +100-200. So knock off ~ $1000 from the MSRP for real world pricing.

For me it's about weather or not the car is worth the value for 24,200. Guess we'll find out when we get to test drive if it's worth it or not.

I think most people realize it is a value proposition and not an affordability question... I hope.

But then value propositions get people bringing in used values, which are a load of nonsense... so I'd rather folks harp on about affordability if we have to choose ;-)

I don't believe the Veloster Turbo will have a LSD. One of the weaknesses of it.

It is amazing how fast this thread is going... Anyway, the more I read, the harder time I have with believing in that it is a coinsidence that all of a sudden, quite a few members with very few numbers of posts to date (some of them claim he has been "lurking") coming out to "defend" the price. CHILL. Nobody is accusing Toyota or Subaru. They can price the cars whatever they want. Some of us are still buying and some of us are moving on. $2,000 - $3,000 difference is a big deal to some people and chump change to others. No need to curse by saying "get a new job".

103% of people are going to finance this car and the difference between $22k and $24k to a monthly payment is negligible. I think most people saying they would buy it at $22k were full of crap anyway. Everyone is going to be in for a real pain in the balls when they find out there will be a "real market value adjustment" slapped on these by dealers like there is with every hot new car. It could be as much as 4 grand. It certainly will be on the limited availability BRZ.

Agreed. We can all have different opinions on whether or not the price is "worth" it but should be able to respect someone else's opinion. Some think it is too expensive, some think it is just right. There is truth to both viewpoints.

A delaer I talked with told me the cars will be sold at MSRP.

That's too bad, I saw my first regular Veloster today and I thought that thing would be pretty cool with a less embarrassing amount of horsepower.

As are all cars until you're half way through the negotiation.

That $1,000 Military Rebate is looking good right about now...Just remembered Scion did this.

Considering I only work 4 months a year... the diff between 22 and 24 is huge...

I was going to call you out for your bad info, but then realized I just cant do math.

If an extra $20 a month is your breaking point you probably shouldn't be looking at a brand new car right now.
