I don't know. I have to see both cars in person, I know the headlights look better in the BRZ vs the FR-S, but the GT86 HIDS to me look better than the BRZ HIDS. The Scion FR-S just needs the HIDS and bespoke to compete to the BRZ premium. Its not really a good deal at only $1300 cheaper, since you are losing a lot.
Come on the BRZ has a real Navigation system and HIDS.
I still think the FR-S front end looks better, but the cheap halogen headlights kill it...it really needs HIDS to set it off as a $25k car. Even the new mustang comes standard with HIDS for $22k.
I am ok with the FR-S interior. At first I thought it was cheap, but it is really the same as the BRZ premium, except I like the seat material on the FR-S better.
Scion could have done this...
Make Bespoke and HIDS standard
Its $25k car why are they scrimping on red stitching on the handbrake? Why are they scrimping on not having a trunk cover?
I know some people hate push start, but it should have been included in a $25k car since Scion is monospec. They could have added it to the manual AC. Even a $22k Prius C has push start.
I don't know...I will see both in person and make my decision. I still think the FR-S is going to be the lighter and faster car. Lets hope Scion does not gouge us on Bespoke pricing. Make it like $200 and I am in.
I wonder what they will do in the first release series?
I have a feeling Scion FR-S are going to be sitting on the lots after the hype wears off...
