Everyone forgets one of the most important factors in them setting a price is benchmarking the competition.
Rs3- 54,900. 400hp.
CLA AMG- 51400 375hp.
BMW almost always put a new improved motor in the Lci's and there isn't really a price bump.
Sure they added more options like the optional sport brakes and optional sport seats to add a little bit more possible profit margin to the car (also mercedes/audi offers these options) I really don't think the base price is going to change like people think it will.
