    Does 5400 units the first year sound like too few?

    2013 Subaru BRZ Limited 6MT - on order
    2012 Audi S4 6MT - company lease, baby!
    1987 Toyota MR2 - 20v blacktop screamer
    1973 Datsun 240Z - highway monster project

    5400 units in japan sounds about right, keep in mind that only %74 of households in Japan even own a car, most of which are city cars, or light transport vehicles. I would expect similar numbers in the US/Canada. keeping in mind that north Americans own more cars per household, roughly %87.

    If your second , your last

    No, I think 5400 is the TOTAL going to be produced for the world.

    Exactly, that's why I'm thinking the number seems low.

    Marketing.

    Imagine the headlines

    "Toyota and Subaru sell out of their new RWD coupe!"
    "Subaru dealership swarmed with people as the BRZ sells out"
    "We have ONE FRS left cooooommmmee onn Giiiittt it!"
