He said the price will exactly 24,930 no other fees or dealer mark up. He said only thing that will cost more is any dealer extras that I choose, like spoiler or extra warranties. nothing will be added once they get it.

Good for you!

So I guess they do the pure pricing like it says on scion site.
No mark ups. I like that.
so I assume you getting the red one nice choice, that's what I like to have too

That sounds great. I wonder what that special little thing is?

Btw... I talked to the Scion area rep for Pacific Northwest today. He said that the options will be very limited at first. Basically just ash tray, rear bumper applique, upgraded radio, splash guards, and trunk liner. The only spoiler available will be the one from the 5 Axis body kit.

Imma call my Scion dealer tomorrow. Had a $500 deposit for Asphalt.

The first week of March I put $500 on the first silver, white, or grey manual car to arrive at my local dealership.They claim to have no idea when or how many cars they're getting. There is likely less demand here in the mid west, and I get the impression that I am significantly more excited about the FR-S than they are.

I hope the dealer doesn't say turn around and bent over.

Just got an e-mail from the local Toyota/Scion dealership. FR-S's (mine, in particular) will arrive in late May, early June. Exciting. I was afraid of a west coast roll out like the IQ.

has anyone used their VIN to get an insurance quote? I'd be curious to know what to expect.

My dealer guy called from Toyota of Pasadena today. He said they'll have my FRS in about 3 weeks, and will keep me updated. Wonder if there's any truth to this...

Highly unlikely:

First seen in the wild today, 22APR2012, at 5:35pm. AS1 chassis car in dark blue (ultramarine?) traveling east on RTE 33, just east of exit 36 outside of Marysville, OH. Just got a quick look at it. I was shocked, and can hardly believe it myself. One possible explanation is that TRC (Transportation Research Center) is no too far, and it may have been there for testing. If anyone knows where they're keeping this car I'd love to know.

so, true all the dealers here have an "it's just another car release" attitude. none of them know anything about the car no matter which dealership I go to and even the dealer that I put a deposit down at doesn't know anything.

I would like to know about this as well...

Well I called USAA today to get a ballpark with no VIN and it came out to $1002 for 6 months ($167 a month) in KY. which is my home state since I’m in Europe right now. That is with a $100 Comp & Collision Deductible, rentail reimbursement, accident forgiveness, uninsured and underinsured motorist, and more. This is less than my tC which was just over $1100 every 6 months. I'm looking forward to getting one even more now.

I'm with USAA as well. I'm 25 living in Oregon with 9 years of driving, no tickets and no accidents. I pay $400/6mo for a 2006 Scion tC with a 500/1000 deductible for comp/collision. I quoted a 2012 Subaru WRX from them and it's $435/6mo for the same coverage. I'm guessing your tC is almost new.

Well mine is a 2007 RS3, i'm 33 two accidents and ky is high because of the location my family lives. in NC i was paying $107 a month or $642 every 6.
