Exactly. I want to finish modding the FRS I already bought and be happy with it. I am already quite satisfied with the improvements on the little bit I have done so far. Once I complete the headers and tune I feel confident this little car will be more than enough to make me completely satisfied. |

In Sweden we are not allowed to change anything which means exhaust, header or changing brakes to decrease weight are a no go. Hence a factory option/upgrade would be very welcome. I woul like 2.2-2.5 and a bit more charisma/soul in the engine/intake/exhaust. And a weightloss of 100-200 pounds depending of how much hp increases. (Tada has alredy said he has a vehicle with - 200 pounds?) though to be difficult I still need the back seats. And for my taste, I woul like to be able to order without large spoilers/wings or small for that matter. In my dream world I would love a 6-cyl option, and since dream maybe an inch or two more legroom in backseat since i need to be able to fit two reversed child seats. Though when kids are older i would gladly buy smaller vehicle again. Though idon't see these happening. |

Well I just want to see these numbers:
220whp 190 lb/ft torque from a N/A engine. All the other options would just destroy the essence of this car. Bigger engine/turbo/hybrid system should just be something they need to think about for the new Supra (yes they need to make a new one). I don't see it sticking to this price point if they did these upgrades, but I don't see why they won't do it given how the GTR just kept on getting more expensive every iteration. |

I thought the whole point in the car was a budget light-weight sports car.

from 200 to 250-260 NA huh? I like it, I'd definitely only do bolt-ons and a tune with that sort of horse.
Now the real question is do I pull the trigger on a 2014 FRS or wait ANOTHER year for the revised 2015 model.... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

im not a businessman so forgive me if i come across dumb, wouldn't be the first time.
the refresh for 2015 is announced, but does that make it official? countless times i've seen business's or car company's delay production/model changes etc. granted, it's usually with higher end performance vehicles. my main question would be whether this refresh is a set in stone type of thing that is gaurenteed in the 2015 models, or does it have the possibility to be pushed back until 2016 or further |
