I dig the RS1 exterior color in general (not a standard yellow, different is good), however the kicker is what I said above plus it's too much of an eye catcher (loud) in terms of police picking you out of a group of cars to ticket ...and/or too much attention in general (even more so then Red, lots of different Red cars/trucks out there..... red was pretty much my #2 favorite color pick).

RS1 had more exterior add ons (as you know). RS2 had both exterior (less so then the RS1) , and interior upgrades. I'd say the RS2 has the nicest Toyota/Scion interior I have experienced up to this point in 2016 (not including Lexus).

The RS 1.0 has a nicer interior than the RS 2.0 old man tan. I'll take the TRD MOMO steering wheel in the RS 1.0 over the RS 2.0 tan leather stock steering wheel any day.

I'm having zero problems with my paint and the car is 2 years old now.

Look on the back side of the steering wheel the MOMO brand name is stamped there.

2013 Hot lava
2014 Hot lava- Vortech, Nur Spec body

Anyone have any history on this car? We purchased it from a dealer but its a one owner car, traded in.

Maybe that's the ultimate paint protection.

@Tcoat this is old news buddy. The Toyota dealership in California did this to the car when it was new and it's had two owners as of now.

Here's a link to the company that did this....
