No one knows, but it certainly WON'T be called the "TRD Version".

I don't know if they will, there is confirmation (by me and my eyes) that the seats do have airbags in them. If the TRD seats don't have airbags, you'll probably be out of luck.

They're the side airbags and they're seat mounted. If you've sat in the stock seats, they are incredibly comfortable. But if you really want them in the car, you better pray they come with airbags or you'll have to deactivate the sensor on the seats.

I sat in it a couple weeks ago. It felt really nice I just prefer the looks of the TRD seats and if its a factory option I would definitely get em. Too many damn safety standards now a days. If not an option ill definitely have to have em put on a boat and shipped

Do we know if they are going to be making a TRD Supercharger for the FR-S? If so that would be Bad ass. That would make the car worth buying IMO.

TRD is usually positive displacement type(Eaton), which some of us would prefer over a rotrex though. Plus, factory, warranty, pre-tuned, all that.

Toss some 86 headlights in your box to the US, I needs me some better looking headlights.

And I concur with the looks of the TRD seats, but my butt is too big and my ears won't be able to handle the nagging I'll get from my gf about her seat.
