Scion unveiled the FR-S Release Series 1.0 alongside the xB RS 10.0 at the New York International Auto Show today, with the FR-S RS 1.0 drawing on track heritage and the expertise of Toyota Racing Development (TRD).

Only 1,500 vehicles of the FR-S Release Series 1.0 will be built, with each featuring updates including a custom-designed aero kit with a rear spoiler and side fender garnish, TRD Quad Tip Exhaust System, TRD lowering springs and Smart Key with Push Button Start. The special edition model also comes with a unique bright Yuzu exterior paint and HID headlamps with LED daytime running lights.

On the inside, the special edition model brings TRD steering wheel, TRD shift knob, black seats with T-pattern, dual auto air conditioning system and TRD logo cargo mat. The Scion FR-S Release Series 1.0 will come with either a six-speed manual transmission or a six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters and Dynamic Rev Management technology.

“It’s fitting that the first Scion FR-S Release Series draws on the rich motorsports history that inspired the FR-S design while standing out in new ways that will excite our drivers. FR-S enthusiasts will appreciate the side spoilers and lowered stance that deliver a look and feel meant for the track, at a price meant for them,” said Scion Vice President Doug Murtha.

Each vehicle will feature its sequential release series badge (1 of 1500) inlayed on a brushed aluminum shifter surround plate. The cars are expected to arrive in dealerships in August with a manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP) under $30,000, excluding a $755 delivery charge.

Nope, look closely. The lip, skirts, spoiler, and rear are not the same pieces at all. They look similar on first glance, but it isn't the same.

I'm seriously pissed bout RS1.0... they're fake TRD JP kits. IDK how they can make it fuglier, but they sure did.

Touche, the differences are actually rather apparent. My mistake!

It's an Automatic-Only Standard for traction control

IDK, I like the new pics of the kit better than the JDM kit... Looks more finished and not so glued on.

Kinda strange they did the nice TRD wheel and Shift knob... but still have the shitty Ebrake lever and boot.

Well at this rate by the time I'm ready to buy they'll have all this available on the entire color palette.

Supposedly the seats are all black and come with toyota T pattern on it. I kinda wish it was leather/alcantara with yellow stitching in the car lol that'd be cool
