Production Questions and Concerns
 

Long time lurker, first time poster. I'm coming from the perspective of a very serious buyer in the US. I work at a dealer, but not a Toyota one (which should indicate how much I love this car).

Unlike some enthusiast forums, I don't think this one has a dedicated Toyota/Scion dealer who is trying to keep everyone up-to-date, correct me if I'm wrong. So, I'm hoping some of the people who were at the FR-S unveiling last night could clear a few things up.

I understand that what we see in the official Scion literature is still a "pre-production" model, however the concerns I (and I think a few others) have are legitimate and are holding me back from putting down a deposit.

Do we know whether or not there will be a "high-spec" version offered by Scion? If not, will things that are offered on the Toyota 86 be offered as options for the Scion? HID headlights? Push-button start? Upgraded seats? If these are all boxes I can check on the order form, then great, where do I sign? If not, and the difference in cost between the Scion and the Subaru is ~$3000-4000 (based on the loose info we have), then the only option for a "high-spec" 86 of any kind in the USA is the BRZ, correct?
