I think the Scion will be much closer to 23,995 while the Subaru is much closer
to 24,995(( so they can market it as under 25k))...
reason being The Scion does not have HID ((which is typically a 1K factory option.))

I think it's funny that the generated voices pronounce Subaru like the original pronunciation.

Not that it matters, since it is still speculation on the part of Edmunds. But still interesting to note what auto "experts" expect the car to cost. Hopefully Toyota/Subaru won't disappoint us.








Damn, Edmunds was early close to it a few months back. I give them the Being off by $65 makes me want to say they nailed it.

This actually makes me think they knew what they were talking about. I hope the BRZ starts at 25,300.

Now, everybody is on board with my theory that Subaru would pull rug from under?? If in fact Subaru does $25,300 including destination, The Motor Trend has told us the truth from the beginning (starting around $24K and I am sure he meant excluding the destination). Sounds about right?

If the BRZ is only ~$300 more than the FRS.

And Subaru dealers are likely to sell the cars at MSRP's while Scion dealers will probably mark up and junk up the cars with unwanted options....... Interesting to see what kind of chaos it would cause.

That or we could get invoice pricing on BRz you know after the initial demand is met which will bring it closer to FRS PP but with all the options.

Yeah, I'd be happy with the Limited price if it doesn't crack 28k.
