Default IS-C pricing

It'll be about $7K over the cost of a sedan.

Not worth it and ugly. You can get a used ISF with that price.

I think most people expect to pay at least a $5K premium for a convert.

When you say this, are you talking about the IS 250C or 350C? Comparably (taken from the BMW and Lexus websites)

328i Sedan $33,600
335i Sedan $40,300
328i Convertible $44,550
335i Convertible $50,700

IS250 Sedan $32,475
IS350 Sedan $36,750
IS250C $?
IS350C $?

Both 250 and 350.

Take whatever the standard package is in your region, and add about $7100. That'll be the MSRP of the C.

In the southern region, they will come in 250 Lux package, 250 Lux w/ nav, and 350 lux & nav.

That actually sounds about right, given prices I've seen for the G37 & 335ic. Pricey but that is a whole lot of engineering that needs to be paid for with limited units.
