This price is from 3rd party sellers. If you prefer to buy direct from Asics, they're $119.99, both on Amazon and on Asics site.

A nice pair of shoes or boots, over $100 is acceptable. $100+ sneakers though....these seem to be for cruising the supermarkets and Costco in my area, which is mostly where I see them.
I do own a pair of blue/peach Nimbus 25's lol.
I'm prepared for the shunning.

25 is great but the 26's foam is a bit softer and outsole has more traction (great for trips where you aren't always in the city). I got the 25 for $80 vs $110 for the 26. I returned the 25 simply because it's too similar. Also, the wide version I got on the 26 was super comfortable.
These max cushioned shoes are incredible. During a recent trip, I walked about 30k steps in one day with the 26. I probably couldn't do it with my Ultraboosts. I got the silver colorway in this deal, which got a bit dirty from frequent use. Might buy a darker one later as the toes on my 26 ripped a little from hitting rocks (hiking around national parks).
I got the NB 1080 (for less than $80 on a deal) to try out softer cushion. It was definitely softer and more bouncy, but I got the regular width version and kinda miss the extra room (and the pull tab). That said, my wide 26 is a bit bulky, especially when I need to cross my legs sitting or reclining in the theater. That's another reason I got the 1080 in regular. It's a trade off so I'm cycling between both shoes. When I don't want the bulk, I go back to my Ultraboost DNA 5.0.
I only bought UBs for a while because they are light, look good, provide good support & cushion, and are breathable. Max cushioned shoes take cushioning to the next level, but many aren't as breathable. The 26 improves a bit on the 25 in this department. I find the 1080 to be a bit less breathable than the 26.
Also, max cushioned shoes give you like an extra inch of height so there's that 😁.
Hope that helps.
Not a good deal then
