2013 Scion FR-S Priced at $24,200 ($24,930 after destination)
To: All Scion Dealers March 20, 2012 Subject: 2013MY Scion FR-S Price Announcement Scion is pleased to announce the starting price of $24,200 for the highly awaited 2013MY Scion. FR-S which will arrive at Scion dealerships in June. Even with DPH, the starting price is still under $25,000! 2013MY Scion FR-S Highlights: This high performance sports car is the fifth model to join the Scion family. Inspired by the Toyota AE86, FR-S is designed around the core goal of achieving, “Pure Balance.” This balance begins with the use of the world’s only front-engine, rear-wheel drive configuration using a flat boxer engine. Some of the great standard features on FR-S include: • 2.0 liter, 200 horsepower, naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine • Toyota’s cutting edge D-4S injection system with direct and port injection • 6-speed manual transmission that offers quick precise shifts with a short throw • 6-speed automatic transmission with rev-match and steering-wheel mounted paddle shifters • Torque Sensing Limited Slip Differential • 17-inch alloy wheels and ventilated disc brakes FR-S’s interior ****pit instantly exudes a “sports car” feel. The front sports seats are shaped to accommodate manual shifting and support longitudinal and lateral G-force. The leather wrapped 3-spoke sports steering wheel, utilizes the smallest diameter in the Scion lineup. The idea of “Pure Balance” is further realized by FR-S’s lightweight design and compact size. This allows the car to be quick and nimble into and out of corners. This combination is further proof that Scion is truly “Bringing the Sport Back to the Car.” The FR-S will be available in seven colors including Raven, Asphalt, Hot Lava, Argento, Ultramarine, Firestorm and Whiteout. Pricing Summary Documents: MSRP for the FR-S six-speed manual and six-speed sequential automatic transmissions are $24,200 and $25,300 respectively. Model Transmission Description 2013 Base MSRP 6253 6MT FA20 $24,200 6252 6AT FA20 $25,300 All prices listed above exclude the Delivery, Processing, and Handling (DPH) fee Pricing will be announced to the public on Thursday, March 22, 2012. Please keep this information confidential until Thursday, March 22, 2012. Pricing details will be available in the Scion FR-S Price Guides posted in the “Secure Area” for Dealer Principals on Dealer Daily. Please contact your Regional Office or local administrator if you have any questions. *Update* Looks like the Destination Charge is going to be $730. update by Ichi Last edited by ichitaka05; 03-22-2012 at 12:18 AM.

hmm, this is a little higher than I'd like. I wonder how this impacts the BRZ pricing. If the BRZ comes in at 25k like the rumors seem to say, then... no one will buy the FR-S. But most likely, we'd just see the BRZ be more like 26k/28k. |

Too high. Puts the base BRZ even higher than anticipated; no good.

As far as I remember when it came to car purchases, AT were always more expensive than MT.

I'm not going to believe it yet. If it's true, that will be a bit disappointing considering that it isn't noticeably cheaper than the upcoming 2013 GC.
