It almost leads me to believe they will can the scion version on the next gen frs move it to toyota and do their own engine....thus no desire to fix this one......just seems they wouldn't want to lose sales if they planned to keep this around for 3 more years. Sheesh, I can't remember the last time a toyota/scion was listed as unreliable by consumer reports. I'm so sorry you guys are going through all this.

If the crickets are keeping you from purchasing this car...then you don't really want one, IMO.

I've almost forgotten to listen for the crickets, and with the windows up during the winter, I've barely noticed them.
