I reckon the car would look better if you were to remove the body kit completely. Ive never been a fan of the TRD front lip. That yellow paint is nice though.

the only reason the RS 1.0 bugs me is because 9/10 people are like:

"Ermahgerd the RS 1.0!!!!! Its so amazing!!!!"

I don't understand why so many people get so hard over it. Whoopdeedoo, it comes with sh*t I'm just gonna replace/mod anyway.

Kinda like TRD stuff. Fanboys rip off their panties when its a trd part. Why?

or like the people who buy the blue series and then end up selling all the "blue series" stuff. Why bother buying the "higher edition" just to sell the stuff that made it limited(lmfao, "limited" to 3k units or whatever toyota calls "limited" now days)?

I agree with this statement. It's pretty ironic.

And I disagree.
Maybe it comes with stuff you would replace but I certainly fail to see where 9/10 of the actual owners said they are ripping anything out.
I have many TRD parts on my car and my panties are all in one piece thank you very much. Again, not sure where you get that people that prefer the TRD parts are screaming about them or suddenly become "fanboys" because they like or recommend them. The same could be said for anybody that really likes any other parts.


Now I do agree with pulling the parts out of special edition BRZs as that does seem a tad silly.

I just think the fit and finish on the jdm body kit has more attention to details, the body kit looks like what would be a Chinese rip off of the JDM TRD kit,

the RS 1.0 and scion still bothers me, "limited editions + pure pricing " every 6 months only to f#^& over the previous limited editions, And dont get me started on the NAMING of this vehicle. but don't mind me that's none of my business, i'm just sitting here waiting for someone to sell their TRD shift knob and steering wheel

I'm totally not digging the yellow at all, Anyone willing to dip/wrap/paint their RS1.0?

Where did Scion say that the Series 10, Monogram, or RS1.0 were going to be the last of the special editions? With Scion's history of doing a special edition every year, only a naive person would feel "f#^&ed over" by thinking they were getting the only special edition. The name "series" even implies that there will be more!

The RS is too loud for what I would personally buy, but I do like it. My 2 year old daughter loves my father in law's yellow FJ, so maybe I should have gotten the yellow.
