Glove 02-27-2012 10:07 AM

30 grand,

200hp

Z3guy 02-27-2012 10:40 AM

^ if that is all you consider, this car isnt for you.

RWD + Toyota build quality = a very fun base car to mod!

BaoTurbo 02-27-2012 12:56 PM

2.0T Base Hyundai Genesis is $25,000. Was $20,000 when it first came out too. Compared to the FRS in size and such, I would have thought the proce would be similarily close or somewhat

godwin 02-27-2012 01:25 PM

Not to mention current exchange rate is hurting Japanese manufactured goods right now.

However acura is their luxury marquee in north America so it makes sense for the rsx to have a higher price. With that said I don't think the price is that bad. Have they shown what's going to be standard equipment? Or avaliable packages.

Honda Civic Si: $26,000
VW GTI: $29,500
Hyundai Genesis Coupe: $25,000 (but $31,000 to get the LSD)

I dunno, the pricing seems fair considering what else is in the segment.

$31k for ITR is actually not bad...honda claimed they were selling them at a loss...dont know if that's actually true for north american market or only in japan.

but I remember the RSX Type S went for around 32K ish as well? now that was overpriced...yet they still populate the streets of vancouver.

$27k for the fr-s sounds very reasonable to me

BaoTurbo 02-27-2012 07:37 PM

Price seems fair but it could have been cheaper. I'm sure there's still some room since the genesis is around $25,000. Don't forget this is the first Toyota RWD in years, I'm sure they should have at least priced it stable and fairly cheap lower than the average sports car market because they are just coming back in. Besides, the Scion car line and popularity is not very welcomed, at least not locally considering they are FWD 4 cycl sports looking cars.

I just....thought...it could be cheaper. Does this mean Subaru is going to price it higher than Scion though?

RabidRat 02-27-2012 07:53 PM

I wonder if they're going to offer the stripped out version here.

Didn't they release pics of a model with steelies, unpainted trim pieces, and barebones interior? That could probably go for $25,000.

!Aznboi128 02-27-2012 07:59 PM

but the itr and rsx-s are both "top of the line" models 27k is to start, wonder how much the high end version is going to be ....

They did, but who knows if that would fly with consumers here knowing they're driving an "incomplete" car. It would work for people like us who actually intend to modify the car, but for Joe Schmoe who's trying to save money by buying it stripped down just so they can have one might not be too pleased about it.

TjAlmeida 02-29-2012 05:16 PM

It says on the website that price is still unofficial

The car resembles a small sport compact car that is light weight, rear wheel drive, plenty of hatch space, and can drift and autocross out of the box quite well it seems.

No point in hating on the price of a car that is not even out yet to test drive, never mind compare to other vehicles in its class just based on youtube clips.

what other RWD sporty car has more than 200hp for less than 30g? Genesis Coupe is the only one I can think of.

Ford Mustang. 305hp V6

Not to mention the Stang will be a lot more fun to drive and be cheaper to maintain.

swfk 03-02-2012 07:56 AM

I'm doubting that they'll release the stripped out version in North America. I read somewhere that quite a high % of car owners in Japan attend track days or some sort of motorsport event like gymkhana. It's just like the Evo RS or the stripped EK9 etc that came with steelies and such
