Heated leather seats and upgraded head unit w/nav are certainly nice additions for the Monogram series. And apparently scion is offering it for free, comparative to the 10-series price.

I paid $28,180 for my 10-series back in July.
Well, at least there are only 2,500 FRS with silver ignition color on the road. It is still unique with that color.

Hmmm...$500 more than what I paid for my Limited before options and probably a higher insurance premium. Glad I got a BRZ!

lol I am curious about 2 things, first to the OP.. Where are you getting this package and pricing information? I see nothing posted on scions website and when I search for monogram there it only gives me information on the iQ. Secondly, I don't understand the rear seat arm rest, so they are still not offering a driver and passenger arm rest but whoever can fit in the back seat gets one in the monogram series?

And to add to @prometheus (awesome handle), scion announces release series vehicles months before they actually start production. Just like the iQ. Not to mention that pricing is also inconsistent with other release series.

Okay so you guys paid below MSRP, you guys do realize that some people will also be buying the FR-S at below MSRP as well. In fact the BRZ Limited MSRP right now is slightly higher. Prices are different all over the place, please stop with this stupid car war shit, they are the same car. We are all FT86 broheims.


As a 10 series owner I do have to say I probably should be a little mad. But as I sit here and ask myself which color would I choose if I did want to get a Monogram, I can't honestly think of one I'd prefer over Silver Ignition. This actually surprises me, I hadn't realized how much it had grown on me. I'm Blue Steel posing all day in it (Zoolander reference).

So does Toyota know that you are leaking pre-launch product information? That could easily terminate your employment right?

EDIT! I'm sorry, I see that you work for a Toyota dealership in the parts/service department, so you actually do not work for Toyota.

Well from what all that I've seen, you can't talk down Scion dealers because they have their easy pricing thing (which is bullshit anyway I know you can always talk anyone down) but that is just what people say on here all the time, that you can't talk them down.

I still haven't seen any official announcement about the existence of this "Monogram" series.

Are you suggesting that people are going to sell their car at a loss to buy this car?

I find that hard to believe.
