    From the Scion website
    $24,930 MANUAL MSRP*
    $26,030 AUTOMATIC MSRP*
    *MSRP includes delivery processing, and handling fee. Excludes taxes, title, license and other optional equipment. Dealer price may vary.

    It was posted on the Scion.ca site, under the main heading etc, but they took it off again (I think someone jumped the gun) - but that page is pretty final.
    That's not sweat. It's your fat, crying.

    Starting at $26,000 for the FR-S stripper means top of the line BRZ will easily be over $30k.

    Let's hope that Subaru doesn't destroy this car with their "Canadian Premium". The BRZ is only supposed to ring in at about ~$1000 more than the base model FR-S in the USA. If they can stick to that kind of pricing here, there's no reason to have the Scion... Not to mention, an STI model for the BRZ is already in engineering. No reason to be an early adopter for this vehicle.

    MSRP should be fine. Dealer markup is what you have to worry about.

    I bet they will load them the shit load of dealer options and upsale them hard.

    I've read that Subaru may develope a faster version but it will not carry an STI badge.

    Makes some sense to load them up because if they put strippers on the lot then they are competing directly with Toyota who will already have a $1000 price advantage. May as well inventory the version Toyota can't sell.

    And if the allocation as limited as they claim, they know they can move them. I bet that the 1st 10 BRZ will be sold at just under $40K.

    No matter if it's carrying the STI badge or not, we are definitely going to be seeing a faster version, as confirmed by Atoshi Atake (Subaru Global Marketing Manager).

    I'm interested to see how this car turns out in the next few years.

    However, the extra $1000 you pay for the Subaru get's you a reasonable upgrade for a "base model". The BRZ will be more of a "premium" base model.

    The limited allocation is either artificial or a rumor as there have been articles stating that the plant indeed does have capacity to crank them out and they have already sold a bunch in Japan. Regardless I have no idea why anyone would want to be the first to buy one of these at inflated pricing when it's obvious there will be improvements following soon and plenty of allocation in the future.

    Edit: Just read a blog at NASIOC from SOA in the BRZ thread and it was clearly stated that the car will not change for the first couple of years so if you want a faster BRZ it sounds like year three of the model run.

    Yeah, I wouldn't be all that surprised. I wouldn't have expected an improved 'revision' only a year or two into initial production. Inflation is definitely the price you pay for early adoption!
