A 2014 BRZ Limited with 500 miles should cost ~20-$21k, according to KBB. They threw in $27k worth of mods and want to sell it for $30k? That just does not add up.
Don't forget that an all new remodelled 2017 BRZ is heading for the showrooms.. this will impact stock that is currently sitting in showrooms. Another thing to bear in mind the parts installed would have been procured trade and installation done in-house.

I like that they took out the red interior stitching...but not much else.

Car is not to my taste, but I've seen far worse go for more, so at least they aren't going overboard with the price. You're still paying for the mods, however.

Would pay $22,000 for it, nothing more.

No doubt about that, but not because people are impressed...

Yes and yes.

Also if that thing was any more over-tired for just an intake and exhaust, you wouldn't even need to use the parking brake.

The car isn't bad for the price. But there's no way in hell I'd drive it with that paint job.
