One more thing, it does have side airbags in case anyone was wondering.

Yea when the seat is all the way back. Move it forward and there is some leg room. Its a 2+2, pretty typical.

You can probably seat 1 adult in the back horizontally.

Is the steering wheel tilt AND telescopic? My WRX from '02 is only tilt, though I was under the impression the newest Impreza came with tilt/telescopic steering.

But who knows.

Anyone else feel the same way?

The looks between the two are a wash for me. I don't like the mouthguard/mustache of the BRZ, but the side "winglets" above the fender are nicer on the BRZ. In addition, the headlights also LOOK cleaner on the BRZ. Like you, I don't want nav at all. I do however REQUIRE HIDs on my next car purchase. If the FR-S doesn't have them standard or at least optional then I'll be getting in a WRB BRZ.

Or a child, which is what I want them for.

I wished there was a FRS there as well, if there is an FRS in Baltimore Im going to go see it. Anyone asked the SCION crew at the DC auto show if they will? I mean it's likely the same crew they might know.

It should be based on videos of the JDM cars.

The front hood and bumper are low, but I was pretty disappointed how big the gap was between the hood and front bumper were. I would say there was almost a quarter inch of weather stripping visible.

Nice, thanks for the response. Yeah I'm not feeling the hood line as much, but it isn't a deal breaker either.

Anyone know what upcoming car show it might be down here @ South Florida?

Top pic shows that the column key hole is blocked with a plate. Is there any key location at all? I know its supposed to be keyless start with the button but I thought there would still be a key hole somewhere?

I know on Mercedes' you can pop off the button and there is a InfraKey hole underneath. Maybe this one comes off so you can put in the emergency key?

Jah1mon · 01-29-2012, 11:25 AM

Just want to add some engine shots.

which looks like a bastard to work on....

Some manufacturers have the slot for the remote but not all of them. My 4Runner has a key less start button, but I always keep the remote in my pocket.

Interesting stuff, silver doesn't look too bad the more I see it. Thanks for all the impressions. My friend went to the show today too and got to sit in it. He got videos of the car too, I'll post them on here as soon as he posts them to YouTube.
