I would gladly pay for a complete-from-the-factory TRD Release FR-S, with one major addition to the mix.

A comprehensive TRD-labeled (but outsourced for major components) supercharger package. I am thinking the Rotrex C30-74 would be a good fit… Intercooler, larger injectors, an ECM flash…

And bring back the (decidedly ricer, alas) 4 gauge A-pillar cluster; boost, oil temp, oil pressure, water temp. But make them white face w/black markings, and red backlighting at night.

Hell, throw in a cushioned bolt-in 4-point harness bar & 5-point harnesses!

Scion FR-S TRD Club Release…?!?

US$42,500…!?!

;^p

EDIT - Oh, and a quick OS X widget conversion of currencies tells me that all of the TRD parts together would cost about the same as the car itself…!!! 2 million yen = 26,500 US dollars (roughly)…!!!

And of course, the TRD parts total figure does NOT include the Rotrex kit, 4-gauge cluster or harness bar & harnesses…
