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.

The color I most often see in pictures is the World Rally Blue Pearl. The Galaxy blue is a bit darker.
