They already did yellow/orange for the last RS tC. As far as I know, they've never had RSs of different model cars in the same color in the same year. They try to make it different. But then again, I am not too familiar with RS4+ of the other models (xB, etc) other than the tC.

I know what you are talking about, but Idon't think it has a name. spec package series? haha I don't think they had it the first 2-3 years with the tC though. They might take a different approach with the FR-S. Who knows? There already is a stripped down version for the japanese market (seen in the brochure).

they had a tc which was nearly stripped down to nothing. it was called the spec package
no moonroof. just a glass roof
16" steelies
cheaper cloth material
and little accents to differentiate the exterior. grill and headlight

i thought this was a good idea since i bought my tc in the smallest spec package possible before this came out. but it was a limited release for obvious purposes

If they make an RS w/ aspen white w/ black wheels, I'm in. Hopefully they do some slick interior stuff, too, like the latest RS tC. I think it would be a given that we'll get one of the more gaudy looking 86 interiors as an RS.

Not interested in the appearance packages.

A TRD release one though-that'd get my interest.

Or a stripped one. Gimme a good radio, that's it.

I don't want to pay more up front for the same car, rather spend the extra 2 - 3K on aftermarket imo... That's just me... (Set of TE37's anyone?)

Umm im not sure if u know this but there is crap for wheel sizes when i comes to 5x100.

Back on Topic. A TRD version would be nice BUT expect to wait 6 months to a year before one comes out. They are gonna test the water with standard models before they do a TRD package.

Although i hope they do come with a exclusive color off the bat.

Agreed. I've never been too keen about the body kits on the tC -- they simply look too bolted on, and appears like an afterthought. Sure, the bolt-on approach is cheaper than a completely new bumper, but it also looks cheaper too (IMO).

have you guys seen this blue modified gt86? Nothing is sexier than that car! I would take that as the FRS RS1 and they can charge me 2grand more if it comes with that exhaust

There is another thread on the topic, but I guess I should at least update this one too:

Why did you bump a two year old thread?

I just bought the frs monogram series whiteout!! I'm happy with the car but haven't heard anything from either scion or toyota on lowering springs till now!!! No excuses if the RS 1 comes with lowering springs then there is no reason why I wouldn't be able to buy them!! I'd go with a after market brand but dnt want to void my warranty.
