You can see the wet mark when you get up, but you can easily wipe it down

Well, that's like, your opinion, man.

Compared to the old ass, that one looks boxy and just... terrible.

Attachment 61381

That is the model number in that shadow you see there. Scion uses the model code 6252 for the Automatic 2014 FR-S (which can be noted in the upper right corner of the photo). And THAT is the model number shown in your photo. The most important number to pay attention to is the last one "2". All release series model codes end in 8 for automatic and 9 for manual. Even the FR-S 10 series which is considered a release series 1.0 by Scion. The Monogram would be a Release Series 2.0.

You should have just stayed quiet and let this blow by, but no! You had to dig even deeper.
So this is what "like a boss" means?

You're thinking mustang, camaro are slower in a straight line now, but catch on the curve.

Different class/type of car, and I'd go topless if I did it, That's what the appeal is to me, the convertible.

It just amazes me that scion is so tight lipped and weird about it, and the trolls are out in force about weird limited monogram here's a picture of the outside that's no different / yellow cars. I mean even the "build" for 2014 doesn't let you add any accessories.

Hahaha! I moved to and FR-S from this and I honestly can say I have absolutely no regrets. I love my FR-S and now I can spend the maintenance money on "hop ups" (Radio Controlled Term)!
