Saw it in NY and....
 
HOLY GOD is it amazing, I mean the pictures do not do this thing justice my girlfriend and I both agreed it was our favorite car in the show we returned to see it multiple times 5 I believe. their were crowds all day and we were there for 4 hours+ and no one even myself cared it was a SCION all we wanted to know is when in 2012 and how can we get one!!!! I was deciding on what car to be my garage car to take out only on my days off when the weather permits and DAMN this is it!!!! :wub::wub::wub::wub::wub::wub::wub::wub::wub::wub: :wub::wub::wub::wub:

Got any pics to share?

FR-HachiRoku 04-27-2011 01:23 AM

Yea the FR-S was definitely my favorite at NYIAS as well. I have more than 30 pictures I took of it as well lol.

Andrea Cristiano 04-27-2011 01:26 AM

I only took 3 with my phone to send to my brother will post tomorrow am going to sleep tonight :)

C-Bone 04-27-2011 02:01 AM

Nice I'd like to see it in person sometime soon

Kage 04-27-2011 04:57 AM

Yeah the pics just don't do it justice. Even the color was the most beautiful red I've ever seen. I'm just hoping it makes even 90% of it to production. Also apparently the doors are lambo style, verticaly opening.

xantonin 04-27-2011 04:59 AM

I wasn't impressed with the pictures. They need a better detailer on that paint. I could do a much better job buffing it out! :D

SUB-FT86 04-27-2011 10:26 AM

I had a feeling it would look even sexier in person. Scion please make this one out of the three of them!!!

Andrea Cristiano 04-27-2011 10:43 AM

it looks so different because the creases in the body are so much more pronounced and how they go from soft curve to hard crease is excellent. the Red paint is also so much more dimensional than the pics show. There is alot of depth and shine to the red unlike in the pics

Andrea Cristiano 04-27-2011 11:10 AM

tranzformer 04-27-2011 01:10 PM

RRnold 04-27-2011 07:59 PM

Thanks for posting! Wow, for some reason, your pics make the car look big and wide!

Kirby 04-27-2011 08:38 PM

LoL at least u didnt have some random guy doing a photo shoot with the car asking people to move for 20 minutes....i just wanted a few pics but this guy was there forever!!!

NikostC 04-27-2011 11:16 PM

I wanted to go but I had work and didn't feel like driving 3+ hours (and wasting about 100 bucks on gas/ tolls) to see the car... anyway pics make the car look wide for sure.

xantonin 04-27-2011 11:24 PM

Should have "pretended" to drop your phone and taken some pics of the underside lol. Or a least a pic through the hood vent to see if there were engine components like a radiator of intercooler...

I heard it was rolled out operating on a golf cart motor... I can't really see them putting actual internals in the car if they aren't going to show them off. Too much risk.

dalli 04-28-2011 02:40 AM

I just came back from the auto show a couple of hours ago.

SCION FR-S WAS THE BEST LOOOOOKING CAR THERE OMG.......
