It's 200 HP not 197 HP in the FR-S.

We dont know if we are going to get the trd options in the usa or not yet, so really hard to say at this point. Hopefully next week we will know more information.

And the engine is standard, not an option (I hope). And we haven't heard anything about optional seats, but hopefully seats will be standard as well. I'm not sure if I could see over the wheel without seats.

Option is a funny word in the Scion world anyway. IMO, options are different specs provided from the factory. My wife's mini had the optional moonroof, LSD, and foglights. She had the driving lights and aux input as dealer options. With Scion, it seems like the only factory "options" are paint, transmission, and Release Series. Everything else seems to be port or dealer installed. I think the FR-S will be similar. You'll get the black and red cloth seats unless you buy a release series model. I think they'll probably end up offering different covers for the factory seat (something like the GReddy would be awesome), but not different seat shape.

Options include LSD, an assortment of upholstery, cell phone holders, dash trims...etc. There are more than just paint and transmissions and RS versions. Stuff like Sunroofs are standard, unless the vehicle comes without a sunroof as well (which it either came with one or does not, not to say you couldn't have Toyota put one in. It's just not an option listed). FR-S is suppose to have even more options than previous models.

My understanding is that all that stuff you mentioned was not put on the car at the Toyota vehicle plant that actually rolled the vehicle off the line. That car rolled off the line with a standard differential and the LSD was installed later. My GTI was shipped from Germany to the US with the standard aero kit and the "factory" votex aero kit was installed at the port. I believe that Scion is pretty much set up the same way.

my first post was a joke... its how i take out my frustation.

I certainly hope the Torsen LSD is not an option, unless Toyota keeps the price of FR-S way down by doing it and offers the LSD for additional $500 or something.

You the man bro! No problems! I am pissed at Scion too...Hopefully they will have their act together with pricing and options. :thumbup:

seriously do people ever read? LSD is standard :/

i got your joke and i laughed venom.

I am speaking of what you can order as options. Not where and when it gets installed. Why does that matter? If it's off the line that way, how is it an option? Unless they offer it without an LSD for example, all that would be then is just pre-installing an option item and selling the car with that option already installed. Whether they dropped it in at the plant, or at the dealership....it's still an optional LSD if you can get the car without an LSD. And Scion offered an LSD as an option for the tC.

FR-S comes with an LSD standard so it won't be an option, unless they offer a different brand alternative through the dealer will there be an optional LSD aside from the standard LSD.

I think it matters because of the disclaimer when you build anything on the Scion site. Any "option" you click on has a disclaimer saying that this is the MSRP for that accessory installed at the dealer and that prices may vary. I'm just saying it is a different tier of "optional" and the expected quality of the install would be different because the dealer would likely be disassembling something to install that option so you don't have the same quality control that the factory does with alignment jigs, torque controlled nutrunners, testing equipment, etc. The variance of quality from an "option" installed by one dealer and another dealer can be massive where you don't have that variance in mass production. Scion is really set up for minimal options (color and transmission) and loads of accessories. They tend to take their accessories a lot further than most brands, such as the LSD for the tC. An LSD is typically a factory option instead of a dealer installed option.

I personally like that Scion focuses on dealer installed type options because that means that it is pretty easy to retrofit something if it doesn't come on the vehicle initially.

Gotcha...yea if it's not done right though, then they will be redoing it. Aside from that, if I'm throwing "performance parts" onto my ride, I do them myself, or my tuner shop of choice does it. I'm not a big fan of dealer or factory performance parts.

LSD will be standard...its standard on almost all the models on the Toyota 86 and BRZ, except for the Automatic versions of the Toyota 86 Low-Spec.

I do not see Scion dumping the LSD in this car to make the price lower.

Yea, i heard the engine was optional :)

Paint Colour.
Auto/Manual.

Those are your options.

Dealer installed options seems to be the debate and I would hightly recomend against getting any as they tend to be highly overpriced and in many cases of poor quality. As a former Toyota/Scion salesman I am fully aware of the insane mark-up charged to dealer installed options. Factory options I have no issues with while I still intend to get no options of any kind. I will have to wait longer for deliver but I can deal with that.

All Scions are mono spec, no options. Dealer/ port accessories are all you get. Only real choices from the factory are color and transmission. This is what the salesman told me who took my deposit for an FR-S to be delivered in June 2012.

How much was your deposit?

Is June considered spring? Damn... 6 months still.

To be honest this list with prices can be tracked as well to see which dealerships are selling the options the cheapest, basically with members all over the USA we should see real fast which option are available, who has what items, and which dealerships are selling them the cheapest, if I save even 500$ on the cost of the car meaning if the TRD brake kit in WA is 2000 and the same kit in TX is 1500 well you get what I mean, that is a cheap airline ticket in my book to get the best price.:thumbup:

All I see happening is color and transmission.

Maybe a step up package to the HIDs/Nav/Leather or something.

Then a whole slew of TRD crap like springs, spoiler, ground effects, BBK, short shifter, shift knob, etc.

Looking at how scion does their optioning, everything is pretty much a la carte.

Updated the list with the BeSpoke Infotainment Audio System.

Nope, they have a stupid thought and immediately make a thread about it.

Bespoke infotainment system will be standard...

:lol:

$500 fully refundable until I take delivery after a test drive.

i say led headlights are gonna become an option

thats fine with me, that means less 86's with leds, who wants stock rims? after i burn the rubber off the stock tires im getting new rims, so like a week or two after purchase they will be up for grabs if someone gets a bare bones model :D

Oh, so they're going to make a powerful version?

i wish they would make a turbo option :) but highly doubt that will happen

bare bones as in no power anything
you get a steering wheel and a 6speed manual and steelies

Updated!

So I get it that the damned Bespoke is Iphone only, can you get full functions with either Ipad or Ipod?!

A Ipad 3G or New Ipad with 4G LTE would work too.

Ipod no..it has not data service.

Android is coming but probably late this year.

I saw that the Bespoke Audio Option comes with the SNS (Scion Navigation System?) but in brackets something about Twitter and Facebook? Are the new Scion Nav Units Facebook and Twitter capable? I'm a HUGE Toyota guy but new to Scion in terms of factory options.
