Everywhere else you get a better stereo...the BRZ has a nice looking navigation standard, in Europe in the GT86 you get a better looking stock system. Only in America do we get a crappy looking stock system. They could have done better. But it is what it is...
If they were serious, Scion would have a stereo delete option...but at least the bespoke will be an option and the aftermarket will have some good choices too. The overall interior of the FR-S turned out nice...

Don't worry, its not an argument. Only a discussion (this is a forum afterall).
This is why I keep bringing up other cars. Taken from Page 1. I realize this is a BRZ but the numbers should be similar for the FRS if not better.
"the BRZ's respectable 69.1-mph slalom speed and striking 0.92g on the skid pad are more definitive of its character than is its acceleration. Those numbers are better than both the
2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe (67.4 mph slalom, 0.89g skid pad) and the
2011 Ford Mustang GT (67.3 mph slalom, 0.91g skid pad)."
In a 25K car you get performance of a 60K Cayman. Stop focusing on the stupid stereo. Just buy the FR-S and spend 35K on upgrading the stereo.
I still think the whole idea behind "For 25K, they could have given us something better" is silly. Your missing the point of the design priorities completely if the stereo is the only thing your focused on.
Plus, comparing the GT86 and BRZ to the FRS is totally mixing fruit completely when it comes to the stereo. They don't offer the same thing (well maybe the GT86 does but i'm not sure).
