It's a concept. It's not even a green light vehicle yet

How the hell is the rear valence rice but the quad exhaust isn't? It's a 2 liter engine. Just confused as to the logic that went into that

"Limited production of 1500" is not a concept. It's green lit.

hmm i might get this one because im in need of a daily driver. But then again, they might release another one in about 4 months after the RS 1.0 series, but with other color variations.

(i really like the Silver Ignition (10series color))

Well, I did say "a bit". I don't dislike it, just prefer a smoother aesthetic on bodywork - less is more and all that.

But since you asked, I was referring to the kind of busy/aggressive treatment of the cutout shape and the tacky TRD molded into it. Quad exhaust is great.

At least the TRD GT86 got larger wheels (some markets got brake and suspension upgrades too). This looks to add springs. Still meh.

I wasnt praising this new RS FRS at all, i think its worse than the TRD GT86, its a stripped down version with scion badging, and dont think you can spring to import that brake kit, its $10,000

So glad I bought my whiteout monogram! If I missed out on the monogram to find this was my only option with all the monogram features I would be pissed! Yellow as the only color option is damn ugly! Who knows if the Scion brand will get things right ever again during the life of this car again! Definitely no regrets or anger in anticipation of a better release series. Current Monogram owners' can rejoice!!!

The monogram owners got the best deal of everyone so far imo.
