2014 PRICING
 

premium exterior color offered for an additional $395 added to base MSRP.

included the entire text in original post now.

What was right before the display audio stuff? The part you copied implies something else is mentioned just before. I'm curious as to what "enhanced comfort" means. Not that it matter for me since I already bought one....

what do you think the "FR-S offers enhanced comfort" is? knee pad?

That would be my guess. It's the only sort of "comfort" upgrade coming to the 14'

For $200 more in MSRP for the new head unit and kneepads, it's not a terrible buy if you want either one. Hell, with that pricing, I'll probably upgrade them on my Limited.

I'm still keeping my fingers crossed on 86 headlights! ;)

I've already seen 2013s on sale with the new touch screen display (Scion of Oxnard had one). They were only charging $200 something for the upgrade. I asked about it as individual purchase for my car, the parts guy told me freakin $800!

There are some really good aftermarket options available for way less than $800....

I think they quoted me the Bespoke unit for about the same price. That didn't make any sense at all. :bonk:

Oh good I don't feel as bad. I was thinking all the 2014 would come with the "JDM" headlights, I would of been :cry:

Really? Ok, I'm actually glad they're starting to include items from the Toyota version but only giving a little tiny bit, the instrument panel pads and not the door pads as well, is sad. What's even more sad is that they can't include any of the other items, even the small ones. Are they going to keep releasing one of the missing parts every year as an "all-new upgrade" for the Scion? Can't wait for 2015 and the trunk lining! </heavysarcasm>

What's worse is calling it "all-new" when it's been available on the Toyota and Subaru versions since day one.

Scion sure knows how to piss off Toyota fans. No idea how they're supposed to be considered a brand to get people into Toyota when they pull shit like this, repeatedly. Stop messing around and give us access the full deal already. Better yet, Toyota, step in and end this farce and release it under your brand with all it's parts, options, and trims as intended already.

"Located on the interior door panels and along-side the instrument panel"

it is on the door panel too. and you realize that scion is toyota right. simply a subdivision. just like lexus. And its Toyota's marketing team that decied to brand this as a Scion in the US. And is probably the ones deciding to not have it the same as the GT86.

JDM models have always gotten cooler stuff.

The 2013 I bought two weeks ago had the touch screen in it. It's a Pioneer, not sure on the model number.

Whiteout used to be only $220. Maybe they increased the whiterestness of it! And having had a "base" FR-S and now having a 10 series I have to say I've enjoyed the headunit upgrade to the 6.1. I didn't mind the other one but the new one has several nice things like voice command, larger readout of course, I can surf the files via Bluetooth, it even shows podcasts separately, etc.

Is it me or was there a price drop? Does this not include other fees like delivery? Because here the manual was around 25k and the auto was 26k.

Maybe that includes the destination charge?

Thats what I was thinking, only recently have my nearby dealers dropped there prices by $1000, like one hot lava automatic car, was $26922, now its $25922, now that they are taking orders for 2014, they are simply removing the bullshit delivery charges and can still make a huge profit.:thumbsup:

The price stated up there doesn't include the $700+ destination/delivery etc.

I was quoted $26,814 for an AT today. The $1000 difference sounds about right (though their pure pricing seems to be at $26,355 on their website).

Glad I didn't wait any longer for the '14 models.

JDM models do get the cooler stuff but when the BRZ has those things its makes me a bitter toyota fan boy :mad0260: (*still love my FR-S)

Then again you pay extra for the "cool" tech in the subie

If the BRZ doesn't get a price raise, it would much better deal to get a White BRZ over a White FRS. It's just so close in price.

Exactly why the GT86 in Japan is being rebadged as a Scion? :bellyroll:

People are funny.

But without all the keyless start and headlight goodies though here in the U.S.

Actually the GT86 overseas has always had that, it was only the Scion FR-S that was stripped down from features. The 10 series have restored those "extra" features.

I know :lol: I was referring to the fact he said "then why is the scion a rebadged GT86" I meant to add "a rebadged GT86 without the goodies"

I would have paid another $200 for that headunit.

Fair enough, I misread that they are including the door panels. The rest of my point still stands.

Scion is owned and started by Toyota, but it is not Toyota. I've gone over this many times before. They have different goals and ways of doing things, even Toyota admits that. That makes the different. Same goes for Lexus.

It was actually Scion's head guy that pleaded with Toyota to get the car to save the Scion brand. Toyota stupidly agreed. It's Scion and their price limit, single trim only, garbage that is deciding to not have the GT86 in all it's glory. If it was a Toyota we'd have the different trims and options, just like the BRZ. That means you'd have an optional cheaper, than the FR-S, Toyota or an optional more expensive, than the FR-S, but extra goodies.

Not always, but yes, generally Japan has held out on the good stuff and that doesn't make it any better or right. I'm a consumer, who has driven Toyota vehicles since day one and I am voicing. They've already stated they watch these forums. I've contacted them in other ways as well. If you don't complain things don't change, they keep bending you over.

Sorry I don't consider being "bent over".

I don't mind them holding out a few things for the JDM model. That's just more I can do to make mine look different than the other ones on the street.

That's why Toyota made Scion. To make cars that people can make thier own and break the cookie cutter trend.

I agree that more options would be better. I know I would have paid a bit more for the car if there were more options in place when I ordered. However, I actually like the ala cart setup scion has, rather than the set trims which forces you to buy things you don't want.

and yes the got some of those things but I still think the GT86/10 series headlights look much better than the BRZ

Agreed

I would have gladly paid more for some options. I love the FR-S, the way it drives and looks. I would have been happy to add SKS and maybe HID then I could go on my happy way modding and hooning.

I think everyone would pay $200 extra for a head unit with nav in the FR-S.

Frs- I would not of. I love the stock unit look. And if you notice a lot of people who do heavy mods keep the stock unit

Didn't expect this to get so many replies. Although yes I agree while the options would be nice from the GT86 I'm glad I can get a cheaper version of it and do the things I want to instead of them being force on me.

With that said though, I do wish all the FR-S had the GT86 headlights and push button start, it just seems appropriate for a car as awesome as this one.

I want the knee cushions. Wonder how much they cost...

Don't forget the FR-S already got a price increase midway through the 2013 model...I think it was $300?

So, that makes $500 more than launch price...but yea, $200 more than what everyone is currently paying as MSRP.
