No. Pretty sure that is the Scion TRD turbocharged show car, not the actual RS1.0.

Scion FRS RS 1.0

I actually don't mind the yellow as much having quad exhaust on this car. It doesn't look as good as any dual exhaust and it's pretentious. I hope it's a case of function over form. Meaning it makes power but I highly doubt it.
Trying hard to like that body kit too.

I like the exhaust...

Well, actually, not really. I was gonna try and find (for a '14 FR-S) a tri-tip exhaust. As in, 3 tips per opening, but I think it would be too large for the bumper opening.

More tips than cylinders, sounds reasonable.

My personal aesthetic, Ill just leave it at that. I am sure that the car can be made to look good with just about any number of tips. Although, I am a semi-ricer, soooooo GULL WING DOORS AND NEON F-YEAH MURICA RACE ME BRO I GOT 10 MILLION HORSEPOWER FROM MY STICKERS
