If only it worked that way!
Would you also be happy to pay $32K if the Yen shoots up suddenly?

And still no word of a Release Series 2.0. I looked at the list of all the previous RS for each Scion model and it seems they release them every 2-3 years.

Yep.
But there is usually some mid level special edition between them. Could be months before they announce if there is though.

This is from 2012, this is the European stripes that have been available since year one, not available in the US.

Bakersfield got their 2015s around August last year. I bought the first one at my dealer. It might take a minute.

Part numbers won't be in the US systems until a little while after the cars hit the lots. We saw this with the under panels from the series blue.
