Why is this so expensive and overpriced? the same exact version is online selling for 787 usd. ripoff much?

This is not a bicycle seller. Click on the seller at the top of the page. They are a fishing supply seller. Seems "fishy" to me. Not sure why they are selling a smart bike trainer for hundreds more than if you get it from the actual manufacturer's website (which has warranty)...

Does the rubber/plastic smell go away quickly? Mine is pretty strong just out of the box and I'm wondering if it will get worse with heat from use.

Yes !!! It goes away quickly !!

does this come with the one year zwift subscription like Wahoo is offering on their website?

No !! At the time I made this purchase, that promotion was not available. And I don't think it's available
