$35k - $45k is hardly premium. Honda Accord moderately spec’d is high 30s.

That's stretching it, "moderately".
That's effectively the top model with all options ticked.
The Sport model: $26,180
Your choice of paints, included. HondaSense, included.
Want to add Chrome Alloy wheels, sure, $2,000.
But you can then get -every- exterior option for about $1,000 (trim, door edges, puddle lights, splash guards, vanity grill).
And -every- interior accessory for about another $1,000 (HomeLink, cargo, doorwell illumination, etc.).
And -every- electronic accessory for well, just another $1,000 ($1,020 to be precise) - Engine block heater, parking sensors, additional USB charging ports, wireless charging for the dash.
I'm not sure how turning on every single option, plus chrome alloy wheels for $30k becomes "moderate spec for high 30s".

Most of those options are included when buying a car on a lot from a dealership (who of course make most money with the high margin options). Bare bones options are extremely rare to come by.
