a little nod to the supra no one has mentioned
the way the windows and door lock buttons on the door are angled toward you looks a lot like the door controls on the supra!

yes but the door handles are much easier to find in the frs compared to mk3 supras. I left a mk3 and got my BRZ.

Dont forget the wheels, they are round, just like the supra. Weird.

Wait, it has rear-wheel-drive, a 6 speed manual and 2 doors, just like the Supra!
Whoa...

To make this thread somewhat relevant: I will say I miss the ease of access to my TC's old window controls. The handle on the FR-S seems to get in the way of the window switches.

do the math. toyota doesnt want you to know its the new supra.
BRZ(3) - FR-S(4) + GT86(4)=(5).. thats as much letters as a supra so it must be a supra. |

Im heading to the garage right now, taking the cover off and seeing if the FR-S also has a steering wheel. Im pretty sure it does, same as the supra, but I dont want to make an ass of myself.
ThinK OP is regreting this post yet? |
