On the premium 2.0T its about $25,500.
Autofair in Manchester had another $1500 tacked on for "market adjustment"

Safe to say, I did not pay that mark up or sticker.

The base model is about $22K. The V6 models can get up to just over $30,000

im thinking about getting this car i LOVE it. hows the transmission with the stick though? i heard people are having trouble with 1st and 2nd and that the clutch is like a truck.

The clutch is fine.
The shifter does suck though.
Notchy as hell and it really does not like downshifting to any gear when its cold. Up shifting is almost always fine.
If you are careful about the revs its not that bad.

I am saving for the power axel reflash ECU device as that sucker is cranking out a bajesus of power for the 4-cylinder.

My Forte Koup is also a b**** to shift when cold. Then I remembered that Redline MT90 cured all my MS6 transmission ills, so I'm getting ready to make the switch in the Koup. You should consider it as well. It'd probably improve shift feel a lot, especially when cold.
