other than a kit car idk...maybe bmw does something off the books, or some weird mustang you have to special order.

OEM sharkfin antenna that doesn't cause reduction of signal? DO WANT!

The Scion already comes in 7 colors. You mean they added an 8th color?

it does probably cause reduction in US.

Japan is much smaller and easier to connect with reception.

There's still hope. If the MY15 FR-S has the oem sharkfin then that means it was engineered for the global market, so reception should be fine.

That new steering wheel is hideous.

It says "Crystal White Pearl" in Japanese on the link, not "Blue".

Not really, you have to see silver Ignition in person. It's basically 4 different paint colors depending on the light and angle (Silver/Blue/Cement Grey/White with fines speckles of gold and hints of green hues). The silver Subie uses now is nice but is just one color all the time. It actually looks closer to Argento IMO.

Look at these pics of Ice Silver, there is no Silver Ignition going on here at all. Anyone with the car can see it right away. I remeber when the 10 series was announced there was a lot of speculation of what Silver Ignition was including this. No other car on the road has Silver Ignition except the 10 series FRS. None.

Here's a good pic comparing Argento to Silver ignition:

Was just going off of the translation, thanks for clarification. Looks like the blue is just the carry-over galaxy blue.

So basically that means the two new colors are Crystal White Pearl and Ice Silver Metallic.

Damn, that means if I want a white OEM sharkfin for my '14 I'd have to repaint.

Boxer486 · 04-09-2014, 03:05 PM

So are these bolts available in the US yet? I take it no...

I wonder if we can add updates like this in parallel to the TSB sticky or make another thread next to it.

on a side note, it hurts me to see the *discontinued* on the FJ Cruiser slot

i think that was my all-time favorite 4X4 suv

oh my god you mean I'll be missing an oem sharkfin?! My FRS is worthless now!

Turbo95eg6 · 04-09-2014, 03:17 PM

Well, they were right. All parts would be compatible with the 13-14. Wouldn't mind the dash panel, the current ones are too easy to scratch.
