There are a quite a few around actually. You can get just about every colour.
They pop up on Ebay fairly often but never are cheap. CVS has a fairly nice one in about 1/32 scale if you are lucky enough to still find them. I have been in about 12 stores on my trips to the U.S. and still have not found one. Or if you are truly ambitious, have the tools and skills there are plastic kits available:

My bro-in-law just bought me one of these RMZ City toys. It's not the best model, but not bad for how cheap it is ($10 or less):
[This is not my picture btw, but same toy.]

22's and a drop!
Haha I was actually thinking about getting some black paint and touching up a few areas. There are a few spots where a little black paint would go a long way.

I want to Autoart one but they are so expensive now....they used to retail for $100-120 but not they retail for $150+ which is ridiculous...
Wish Jada Toys would make some diecasts of the scion, cause they had superb prices for the quality

It is funny how the price of the toy ones seem to go up proportionate to the price of the real ones going down!

On the RMZ scion FRS, the Scion logo is actually upside down on the front and back badges.
