what toyota(scion)/subaru should have done is make this <$20,000 for the base model and $25,000 for the best model (non turbo) $28,000 for best & turbo. Then these things would fly of the lots

I agree. When all is said and done I still have a feeling this car will be a total fail. Don't get me wrong...I think it looks decent and I'll probably test drive one but you have to give people some trim level options. I don't think the OSFA approach Scion is taking will go over very well. That may be part of the reason the brand is struggling to begin with. I think putting it under Scion instead of Toyota is a HUGE mistake. They claim the point is to prop up the struggling Scion brand. They would have been better off giving the Scion brand the axe all together. With all the hype surrounding this car for the last couple of years, they are setting themselves up for a huge disappointment.
