3-price-approching the price of a base WRX, which is a MUCH faster, equally as well handling car

These may be problems in terms of if being a commercial success.
But for me the numbers look great apart from the price. I am so tired of cars with massive tyres and huge grip. Much more fun to have thinner tyres and a chassis that you can really play with. More grip isn't automatically better for driving enjoyment.
In fact, too much grip is probably my only real complaint about Boxsters and Caymans (well, apart from the grenading engines).
