I very much prefer that the stupid lighting and audio options aren't available for the FR-S. The strobelight teenmobiles are the reason a lot of FR-S owners are embarrassed by the scion badge. Ever see a bunch of scions at a car show? It looks /sounds like an outdoor special ed dance club. If the lack of accessories at launch helps move them away from that then I'm ok with it.

Every car has just as many people doing the same thing. Just because you or myself dislike something it doesn't mean it shouldn't be offered for people that do when that was part of scions reason for selling a one spec car.
The reason for the one spec car is so you don't have these special overpriced versions sitting on the lot all day. You have them all the same. Then when someone comes in to buy one. They choose from a list of addons to make it unique, special, ricey, classy, dope, phat, pimp, clean, cool, wicked-tight, sweet, or simple as they can afford/want.
It was something I liked seeing since it was the closest thing to what they did in the 50-70s of offering what a customer wanted instead of these BS packages where for example: I want HIDs. Can I have them? No, you must choose this package for x$ that has 24 other things you don't want.
If you simply want it as is then have it that way, but that doesn't mean they should go against one of the reasons they started the brand.
