I think in this thread ppl compared the S208 pricing to S209 but the price they quoted are not really the right one. To get a S208 close to S209, you will need NBR challenge package with carbon rear wing, which will make S208 pricing close to 61k USD. S209 does come with a wide body as well, so I really do think Subaru tried really hard to price this car right with such low production volume.

All in all, the price is high, and not everyone is going to like the price or the wide body or the carbon wings. But I really do think it's a really nice gesture from Subaru to bring this rare car in just for the US market. Not to mention you see less and less car manufacture building special edition cars that are actually special and not just paint/badge and call it special.
I completely agree.
