U right bro. Let's hope the FR-S is less than 2700 pounds....could be.

I'm sure you saw this thread, but a Limited BRZ came in at 2686 with 1/2 tank of gas.

You already have your answer... it back to the gen coupe/mustang debate. Two cars that aren't anything like the brz, besides being 2 door and rwd.

After seeing Scion's pricing.. and knowing the car will have lower end
stereo unit... and no HID at those prices ... I really HOPE Subaru can step
up its game by doing the USDM BRZ a favor and not go 1000 over the FR-S
and keep pricing just a hair under 26K

Uh okay? I guess they will track down who they sent it to and fire/get in trouble whoever leaked it. Unless OP is actually Scion. I mean C'mon, we've seen it done before with the leaks

This car is going to have a hard time selling if the base is $24k - end of story

Being priced in the mid $20k's
Having 6spd MT
Being 2+2


Want me to keep going?

I thought the scion.com website basically confirmed that is the base price?

Price has been such a thing for such a long time, people are having trouble adjusting to a world in which the price is known.

Now THAT is a worthy investment.

Come on Scion Canada. Announce pricing at par!
Is that investment property or depreciable property?
