They haven't confirmed pricing or specifications. Its a big update with a new engine and almost the entire body and much of the interior, so I'm assuming its going to be a whack.Australia is a key market for performance cars like this so I'm not all too surprised.
@Blighty what is Aussie pricing supposed to be like?
Is over 40k out the door at least reasonable compared to other sports cars available in Australia?They haven't confirmed pricing or specifications. Its a big update with a new engine and almost the entire body and much of the interior, so I'm assuming its going to be a whack.
Anywhere from 2-4k I think. Which in Australian dollars puts it at about 37k to 39k list price for the current base BRZ, over 40k after driveaway expenses.
We don't know the specs yet though. Last time Subaru only had a middle spec at launch in Australia - with the uprated 17 tires, but downrated interior.
Toyota had both a bottom spec 16 tires with crappy interior, and a top spec 17 with all the bells and whistles.
So it will be interesting to see if we only get the 18 inch BRZ this year, the interior specification will also be interesting.

The 86 is a hard to compare against owing to its fairly unique market proposition of a low cost performance 2+2 RWD... as we all know.Is over 40k out the door at least reasonable compared to other sports cars available in Australia?
Sales and ease of manufacturing pipeline - after the US and Japan, we were the largest market for the 86 (well outpunching UK, Canada, and other markets considering our population), and we have the same driveline 'handedness' and emissions standards (pretty much) as Japan. We also have a free trade agreement with japan that covers car import tarrifs, and shipping costs are lower owing to our proximity.Why is it a key market?
