It's hard to believe these have been around for 4 years now! Second hand ones can be had for about £9-10k with very reasonable mileages!

Where from?

£9k - £10k? Yep he's talking rubbish.

Exactly.

From Evo, 4 years ago:
"Okay, it's badged as a Scion FR-S, but the prices have been announced for the US-market Toyota GT 86. For the princely sum of $ 24,930 - around £15,770 - you can have a six-speed manual Scion FR-S signed and sealed, almost £10,000 less than the European-market version."

That's £19k+VAT+shipping+duties ! Not exactly a bargain LHD alternative...

The question was where can they be picked up for that kind of money. I answered.

It's not a uk only forum.

The clue was in the use of the pound sterling....

So you can get one over there for similar... how much to import it though?! Will anyone bother?
