I'm against a 'performance' edition. They should all be bumped 25hp-50 and no more, or nothing at all.

You want a Prius is what you're saying?

I'm also happy to see Scion go. In 2003/4 I was really excited to see it come, but it seemed they started running long in the tooth by the time the second xB came around; they were already out of touch with "the youth market."

Making the ZN6 a Scion was a decent move by Toyota to breathe some life into the brand where it existed, but one car wasn't going to save a brand.

correct me if I'm wrong but aren't they the ones who marked up an FR-S for 32 grand back when the car was first released?

not sure, I didn't get my car till middle of summer. I do remember Subaru dealerships marked up the price on the BRZ

why are you trying to compare apples to oranges?

There are a ton of powerful, fun cars under 30. No 2+2 sub 3,000 lb drivers only car like you asked.

You have a very specific and narrow criteria that basically pigeon holes this car to have no competition.

I did the same thing with a piece of my T-60. Didn't realize it went into inventory when busted and I sold it, but couldn't remember where. Had to go on a vendor search to buy it back.

I had number of friends whining about the mark up on the BRZ. I told them if you wanna be cheap just get the FR-S or just wait until the heat dies down. Their reaction "I want to be one of the 1st to have one and ewww Scion logo, no thanks".
