FR-S center stack
I really don't like the photos I've seen of the F-RS center stack:
The three staggered knobs look pretty cheap. I like what I've seen of the BRZ stack better. I think this might only be in the Limited trim: Is Scion going to have an option that will include this improved center stack? |

I completely agree, but apparently Scion will have multiple options for the head unit (BeSpoke), so maybe they'll have options for the stack as well.

Its unlikely that Scion will have an option for the stack. The Limited BRZ HVAC controls are used with the auto AC and has that Push-Start button. Since Scion isn't offering auto-AC nor the push-button (from the information gathered on Scion's site and the net), and the fact that they only have monospec production cars its unlikely that it'll be an option :/
Only the head unit may be interchangeable (for the BeSpoke unit, there might be a chance its already included) |

That center stack will be available on the Premium BRZ also.
Scion will not offer an improved center stack. If you want the interior of the BRZ, pay an extra 2k over the price of an FRS. |

Don't you mean 4k over the FRS? The dual HVAC is only offered on the BRZ Limited.

I would like to think the center unit will be revised or up-gradable in the cars mid life/facelift cycle. Similar to how VW MK5 revised from a switch to a knob for the AC unit.
