Guessing the majority of these are "launch edition" which only comes in red with tan interior.

Oh god I remember someone posted a link on Supraforums(?) not too sure, can't remember, but someone bought like a brand new GT-R, M3, Z06 or some super sick sports car and wrote it off in like the first 30 minutes of track time. Owed like 100k and he was parting it out. What a brutal story, guy was not loaded or anything.
Was a few years back, wonder what happened to him...

Well it sounds like he was a fucking idiot who needed to learn a lesson.
Not loaded will not go well with GTR/M3/Z06 and tracking.

So by that point the ND is already a $40-$45k car easy.

Checked out the red one at Signature today too. Shame the GS model doesn't have adaptive lighting or the passenger headrest speakers + subwoofer. The cloth seats also feel really cheap, although they are comfortable.
Will be interesting to see how much the Recaro alcantara seats go for next year bundled with the BBS / Brembo package.

not everything is straight line related | I never said anything about straight line. The Miata has a pretty big power deficit compared to the WRX if we're only comparing price points which is actually very similar. In terms of weight there is also a big difference, but the starting price of the ND just makes the WRX seem all that more appealing, to me at least.

they say its about $3500 or so more for that package. not sure if USD or CAD
but why would you need brembos on a car like this?

The car weighs like nothing, why the hell would you need a BBK unless you weigh 500lbs or something? Probably needs a good set of pads and stainless steel brake lines is all.

and most of it is the ability for a quick pad change at a track day. a cotter pin caliper u can do a pad change in about 30 seconds
some of its bling as well
its not actually a bbk, its just a caliper change
