They've actually said they are thinking about it, but not until after Cataclysm has been out for a while, to prevent people from having level 80 Worgen/Goblin's right away.

wouldn't this mean you could change to alliance and back to horde(or vice versa)?
ofcourse 60$ for a race change is a bit of meh,but still possible?
Yeah, 60 dollars, and you have to wait
60
days in between faction changes, so 60 bucks and
60
days just to change your race.
Edit: Green text FAIL.

Yeah, 60 dollars, and you have to wait 30 days in between faction changes, so 60 bucks and 30 days just to change your race.
man surprised green words are wrong :P
this was taken on the sorta warning page before you get into the faction change page
Things to know before you start:
* The faction change process is not immediate, and a character will not be available for play while a faction change is pending. Under normal conditions the process should take under an hour, but please allow up to several days for a faction change to complete.
* During this process, you will select a new character race from the opposite-faction races that have the character's class available. You cannot change a character's class.
* To see how character-specific information such as achievements, reputations, and items are affected by a faction change, refer to the Translation Table.
* A realm transfer is not included in a faction change. However, the restriction on having members of both factions on a PvP realm has been lifted, so you can have characters of both factions on a single PvP realm.
* A character can change factions once every 60 days.
* Not every character will be eligible to undergo a faction change. If applicable, the reason a character is not eligible will be brought to your attention before payment is rendered. For example, faction changes may not be possible on certain realms or only one "direction" of faction changes may be allowed on a given realm.
* Please refer to the Character Faction Change FAQ for answers to common questions about this service.

when you faction change faction and change back u will be the race you was before as the race u was at the start.... think it was like that
This is correct.
Example:
Orc Warrior Smashyhulk faction changes to alliance he gets a choice of:
Draenei, Night Elf, Human, Gnome Dwarf
He picks Human
Now he's Human Warrior Smashybruce and after the cooldown period he wants to go back to being horde. He can only choose from the following races:
Orc
I guess they changed their mind on this. This is how they said it was going to be originally. Now it no longer seems to be the case.

as i just stated, that used to be the case, but not anymore..
as quoted from the faq:
Q. When I change a character back to its original faction, can I select
any
new race?
A. Yes. As noted previously, though, you will only be able to select a race that is available to the character's class.
Yeah I already corrected myself. Yesterday I was reading the FAQ and there was a question "Can I use the faction change service to change my race?" and the answer was "No. We're implementing a race change service in the future for this purpose." I guess I just missed this earlier QA.
But yeah, when they originally announced this service they hadn't announced paid race changes yet and said they were going to restrict you to your original race.

Haha, I actually had it at 60 days, but second guessed myself and edited it down to 30!
