Default Official Scion FR-S/Toyota GT86/Subaru BRZ thread

Everyone remember Mr.K? Well he's at the NYIAS waiting for Toyota's news on the FR-S. They have a thread over at myfrs.com where he will be posting updates as they come in and he asked me to let you all know that he will have as much info posted as quickly as he can.

I think the car looks great, I think releasing it under the scion badge is a bad idea. Makes it too teen oriented. It goes from being a serious 20k-30k sports coupe competitor, to just another sport compact.

From the details Ive heard DI flat 4, it doesnt sound like a turbo model is in the works. Which means it wont be replacing my ms3. V8 gencoupe however...

What does My Florida Retirement System have anything to do with Scion? I don't think a bunch of 65 yr olds will be very interested in this car...

The concept for this car is pretty nice looking, the back end looks like it doesn't really flow with the rest of the lines of the car. The window styling is straight ripped off of the GT-R.

A little overdone with the carbon fiber accents but not too terrible.

The pictures I saw didn't have the scion logo on it but the toyota one?

Hrm, not sure what that's about it works fine for me... did it redirect to something other than myfr-s.com?

http://www.myfrs.com
I'm guessing something was broken in the dns or something because it's myfr-s.com, which is where my link points to, I suspect when your ISP couldn't find it in their local dns they guessed for the next closest maybe?

Poor man's LFA, I like it. Doubt it looks that good in production guise. I can't believe they wasted another show for a concept. This is worse than the Camaro. Going on two plus years now. It's going to need a mid cycle refresh for the release. LOL

I think this will give the GC some serious competition. It looks very good. Hyundai needs to step it up.

yeeeeeeeeeah.. I want one
Tons of stuff on it that won't make production, but we knew beforehand that the Scion version at NY show was going to be a concept.

The production version is supposed to be shown at Tokyo in October.
