I agree with what many of you are saying re: styling/features BRZ vs FR-S.
The BRZ Limited has the features I want. The only thing I may like more on the Scion is the front bumper, and it's not even a big deal to me. Even if Scion offered the BRZ Limited features, I'd want to replace the fender inserts with BRZ ones w/ the optional chrome spear. Also, I'd rebadge it as a Toyota.
I've heard that the Scion interior won't even have the red stitching we've seen in most of the photos. The few photos I've seen without the contrast stitching really hit home what a difference a small detail makes; it looks too plain.
Having said all that, what I CAN see Scion doing is releasing an FR-S Release Series (RS) with the BRZ Limited features, probably in the red exterior color, to match the stitching etc.
Scion only carries one trim level to keep prices low, but seems to do a RS for nearly everything. An FR-S RS would be an obvious thing to produce. All the hardware is on the line; it's an extremely simple proposition.
