How Long Will the Monograms Be Available?

So it pains me to say that I'm a member here, and I don't yet own an FRS. I'm hoping to change that early next year, though! That brings me to my question that hopefully someone will have some insight on.

How long do you think the Monograms be available at dealers?

I'm hoping to find one early next year when I get back from being overseas, but I've never dealt with special/limited edition cars. I've only bought/sold two cars over the years and I don't consider myself that experienced when it comes to buying a vehicle, so I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Dont worry. Scion will keep releasing new special editions. That what they did after I got my 13 FR-S base.

FXXXCK!!!

My thoughts are even if the monogram ends there will be another version. Original -> 10 series -> monogram -> RS 1.0 -> ?? Always going to be another version so don't worry about the "limited edition" aspect.

You can always pick up a BRZ limited... it's gonna be exactly the same other than styling.

Considering that my local dealer has 3 10 Series sitting on the lot still, I wouldn't be surprised if Monograms were still laying around on lots next year.

Just get an FR-S. It should have been called the "Flatbill" edition.

It has been a year and 10 Series are still on the lots, and we get new members registering in the 10 Series registry who recently purchased it. Albeit there was 1000 more 10 Series than Monograms.

You want the Super Turbo Supercharger Doge Monogram 2.0 FR-S.

It seems that the Toyobaru is destined to compete/replace the Miata in more than one way.

Not only are they an awesome affordable RWD car...there will be a "Limited Edition" every year.
