Can't say I didn't see it coming, in fact I told a friend of mine who's really interested in the BRZ to wait to see what pricing was gonna be like, but still- $31K for a NA 200hp car? I'm at 6062' MSL. That car would be absolutely nutless up here, unable to get out of its own way. Interested to see what the aftermarket does to address this lack of testes.

You are absolutely right. This naturally aspirated 2.0 liter will be huffing and puffing up the mountains here.
Again, this car is not designed for high horsepower, but maybe also not designed for high altitude (?)

Yeah. That's right. Import taxes (importing from Japan) and Engine Displacement taxes, among others. If the engine had any larger displacement, it would be even more.

Which version are you planning to buy? Scion or Subaru?

Wow, I won't lie. I'm jealous.

Is Galaxy Blue that Subaru blue you see in the pictures/reviews?


I'm not sure the engine sound matches the interior fit/feel, but I wouldn't doubt the engine's peformance and power delivery will.
