2015 vs. 2016 Dimensions
 
Hello good people of FT86CLUB.

I'm finally looking to take the plunge and make my first car purchase, and it obviously had to be the FRS. I would like to think I know quite a lot about the car, but I spotted something odd on the 2015 vs. 2016 brochure (attachment) and would like to ask everyone here for clarification.

The height dimensions shows the '16 is taller than the 15' by over 10 cm (4 inches). Needless to say, that is a huge discrepancy for a car that is supposedly left unchanged throughout the years.

Anybody know why? Thanks in advance!

Your attachment did not go in correctly.

I highly doubt that the car is 10cm taller. Why not swing by a dealership and compare the two?


EDIT: Here is Scion Canada's dimensions

Scion's website has the 2016 height at 50.6", which is exactly the same as their listed height for the 2015. Probably a typo in your brochure.

So my question is this if the 2016 FR-S is 4 inches higher than the 2015 model would it be a deal breaker for you ?

BTW the car hasn't changed.

The 2016 is Tundra-based.

The 2016 has a new standard shark fin antenna that is about 4 inches taller than the 2015s.

My dad works at Scion he told me.

That's with the optional off-road package.
