I guess I shouldn't have done that to your dad, but I didn't like the shirt he was wearing. So I taught him a lesson.

The government really is the enemy all of the time.

Price drops? Sounds desperate. Talk about not knowing what they're doing! Subaru doesn't advertise the car -only their hippie 4WDs. Really, is lowering the price on a car you don't promote and people aren't buying going to make a difference??? Now is the time to refresh the appearance & add more horsepower since most equate all things sporty as bursting with hp. The general public doesn't understand the enjoyment of the driving experience with a car that's under 30k with great maneuverability (with pretty good milage too!). The few people that understand this purchase Miatas.

The 2016s BRZs do not have on-board navigation standard. They didn't 'drop the price', they removed a feature and adjusted the price accordingly.

(that said, StarLink is a fair sight better than the old Nav unit).
