They built the GR Yaris to homologate that body as I recall, but the drivetrain and AWD getting into street cars was a bonus.

Curious, how does that work up there? Are there some regulations that require cars not be sold over MSRP?

A new ZL1 Camaro is $70-80k. Is it not unreasonable for a Corolla to cost half of what a Camaro costs?
Alternatively, MSRP on a 2004 STi was $32k, which is about $50k in 2022 dollars. And that got you a blanking plate instead of a radio.
Back then people were incredulous over spending That Kind of money on a Subaru. The market tended to think it was acceptable
Well, seeing as the top Corolla starts at $52k, that's far above half.

If people would stop paying them, the dealers wouldn't be able to do it.
My BRZ the dealer tried to add a $1k ADM when I came in to order, I stood up to leave and told them I wouldn't be paying any markup over MSRP. They quickly removed it.

I believe it's a provincial (state) regulation, which I know at least some provinces have, so then the dealers in the other provinces would do well to follow suit so they don't lose business to neighbouring provinces.
