Scion FR-S pricing found in website HTML?! (Update: Same as 2011 xD Pricing)
UPDATE: Turns out the pricing in the html are the same exact figures as the 2011 xD prices. Webmaster likely used that as a template for the pricing code in the FR-S website's html
Long time lurker, but that's not why you opened this thread... take a look at this! Direct copy and paste from the View > Source of the Scion FRS page (http://www.scion.com/cars/FR-S/index.html): " <divclass="content-container"> <divclass="model-detail-block"> <h2class="scionfontMedium"> BRINGING THE SPORT <br/> BACK TO THE CAR. </h2> <!-- <div class="model-price-block"> <p> <span>$15,840</span> <span class="small-copy">manual msrp<span class="asterisks">*</span></span> </p> <p> <span>$16,640</span> <span class="small-copy automatic-copy">automatic msrp<span class="asterisks">*</span></span> </p> </div> --> <!-- <p>estimated mpg: 27 city / 33 highway MPG est**</p> --> <p>With a front-mounted flat boxer engine and a 6-speed transmission, the rear-wheel drive FR-S has motorsport running in its veins</p> <ul> " Before I get too excited, I know they could easily come in and change those numbers with a few backspaces and a few number keys... but if that is the price of the FRS... :happy anim: :happy0180: Last edited by WhiteFang; 02-26-2012 at 03:37 AM. Reason: Fixing title... a bit excited when I wrote this |

Place holder? Apple is notorious for doing things like that.
However, if that really was the price... I'd run over my own mother to get to the dealership.

I agree... but it's there...
Maybe a cruel joke by one of the web admins for Scion? |

The web admins have shown to be a bit off (understatement) when it comes to FR-S info. That said, there is no way the FR-S will start lower than the tC, or even the iQ for that matter.

While I see that pricing being way too low, if it "is" the pricing that will be. What would that make the BRZ pricing? Speculate away!

A place holder to make the code easy to edit when the time comes. They could also be dropping hints without violating the embargo...
<!-- <div class="model-price-block"> <p> <span>$25,840</span> <span class="small-copy">manual msrp<span class="asterisks">*</span></span> </p> <p> <span>$26,640</span> <span class="small-copy automatic-copy">automatic msrp<span class="asterisks">*</span></span> </p> </div> --> <!-- <p>estimated mpg: 27 city / 33 highway MPG est**</p> --> If that's true, I predict: BRZ Premium = high 26k to low 27k BRZ Limited = low to mid 28k

I'm really hoping it starts off a grand cheaper from these pricing speculations, maybe they'll release official prices soon? We know who manages the FR-S section of the site has made mistakes before..... Keeping my fingers crossed
