I've been thinking of doing that to mine but the HIDs work so well I wonder if they make any difference? Could you please post a full frontal pic? Thanks

Got a call from my dealer today. STILL waiting on my car. Apparently a huge number of cars are being held at port because they are waiting on missing parts? Not sure if the details, but my dealer said they contacted Toyota, and that's why they replied with. No solid ETA yet because of it, but they say within the next month.

Anyone else still waiting on theirs?

Spotted my first RS 1.0 in person as I was driving past my local dealer... Made a U-turn and came back around so I could snap some pictures. It was an auto though. I have to say that the exterior color is not just any yellow... It has some character to it, and will catch attention for sure, especially on a sunny day. Maybe it's just me, but the seats look very similar to the BRZ Premium besides the black pattern on the upper back rest area.

Made me second think my decision for ordering my '15 BRZ Premium last week... After some further thought, I'm more of a simple guy and I don't feel at home with too many options and features. Base version is more than sufficient for me, although I can see why one would get tempted for the RS. Here are the snaps:

I test drove a stock FRS and the release series there are notable differences when going through corners. RS1 just sounds a lot better when inside cabin also

Same problem for me. They said they are waiting on one part. It's really frustrating.

Is that Star Toyota on Northern Blvd?!

I'm in NYC with my WRB Series.Blue.

The Scion 1.0 looks great. Wondering what kind of deal you got with them OTD? I went in last year looking for a 10 series, but I wasn't ready to pull the trigger then.

The back fit well but not the front (because of the long/low side-skirt on the RS 1.0 - The rally armor logo is partially covered by the skirt).
