10 series vs. 2015 fr-s

Need some insight. Absolutely obsessed with silver ignition. Found a pretty a sweet deal at the dealership as most have at this point. Just realizing I could pick up 2 year 'newer' car...any true benefit known with 2015 over 2013? Thanks

With a 2015 you will have a sharkfin, JDM exhaust tips, and some kind of revised suspension bolts.

On the other hand, Silver Ignition is a spectacular color, has dual-climate, push-button. You could pick up tips and sharkfin for just around $200 if it really mattered to you. You would probably end up saving more getting the 2013 10-Series.

Goodluck!

Get the Monogram
I don't think the 10 Series has leather interior and heated seats.

If he really likes silver ignition then he should get the 10series.

10 series just because of the fact that it has Dual-zone climate, push start ignition and toyota headlights. Is dealer is offering $2000 or so off of the price? Because I saw a deal like that with my local dealers too.

If i were you I'd get the 2015 because mostly all the known bugs/issues are fixed. You would enjoy not having to worry about any past issues. I say that as a Toyota parts employee. Either way you will be happy with your choice.

I am wondering the same thing. This is really the main reason I would consider a 2015, but not entirely sure the crickets are eliminated?

When are the crickets supposed to appear?

I'm at 2,000 miles and I still haven't encountered them yet *fingers crossed*. I hope i didn't jinx myself..

Also, is there a list of the "bug" fixes? Just ask yourself if you could live with those small bugs, I haven't noticed anything terribly wrong myself.

I still vote for the 10 series to save you some money, especially if you enjoy the color. I LOVE the color so I am very happy with the 10 series.
