And having a Subaru badge is better? For what it's worth your car is still a Scion with Subaru badges and vice versa!

The Subaru badge looks nicer though.

The Toyota badge looks the best.

I have to admit when I saw the bumper in pictures I was not a fan, but in person I don't mind it at all. overall I like the brz bumper better, but that's just personal taste. My brother has the frs, so its a endless debate here.

Not really; it's very plain. A couple of silver loops, the end. The Subaru badge, especially the new ones with the shaded blue background, has depth to it. I will agree that the older ones with a single color blue or black background are kind of boring.

I prefer the BRZ bumper over the FRS'. Just personal opinion.

The End?

-Toyota badge spells out Toyota.
-3 silver loops are the 3 interlocking aspects of the company.
-Just as Subaru's badge is the constellation for Taurus, the Toyota emblem is actually a bull.

Way cooler

If anything the older pink WRX/STi badges were way cooler than the current badges.

The meaning is cool, sure. But it doesn't look all that great. Which is why I said the Subaru emblem looks better.

oh boy here we go again

Subaru, Scion, Toyota..... BRZ, FRS, GT86...... We all drive the same budget ass sports cars!!!

I like the Subaru emblem with the Pleiades (Taurus) constellation. Because space.

Agreed. Though I'll say it's probably the most fun budget ass sports car I've ever driven period!

Agreed. And all we were doing was debating the looks of the badges. It's not like I insisted that the BRZ was a better car.

The leather interior and heated seats are nice though...

Oh yes by far! These cars are worth every last penny.

I just don't think either is better than the other. I'm glad that there is some variety to help better suit peoples tastes.

MokSpeed · 05-14-2014, 12:28 PM

I honestly was leaning more towards a BRZ at first because of those features. Unfortunately, I wouldn't settle for anything other than a WRB and there were none to be found at the time in my area. Then Scion North America had to drop the monogram in my face a couple months after I buy my car...
