We are waiting for the sheet to show up on Motoring.au and then spread like the plague through the rest of the click baits. Only a matter of time.

Didn't you hear about the BMW partnership?

Straight six returns to Toyota!

And since Tada-San is on record as saying upgrades will be backwards compatible it should be an easy drop in!

BMW-Toyota seems exciting but wouldn't it be nicer if it were a Nismo-TRD?

Been shopping around, considering an "upgrade". The only car that provides James May-type fizzies like the FR-S is the F. Despite the more than obvious differences, they have very much in common. At risk of taking shit from tards again, the 86 is a taste of supercar for the serfs.

Even the base F-type looks to be pure joy from what I've seen. Wish a commoner such as myself could experience it in person but I doubt they'll let me take it out for a spin...

I like how, in the "Build Your Scion" feature, under Performance, when you click the TRD Lowering Springs on and off, you can make your FR-S do a little dance.

I may just buy the seat, since it now has traces of my DNA on it. Utterly orgasmic, in every way. Having said that, the FR-S, for what it is and what it cost's, is a miracle.

Lord help me Jeebus.......

ETA: I think the FR-S is a vey sexy car. The F causes fecal accidents.

I tried putting the zip code in for California and my god there's a thousand options compared to Central Florida. Does anyone know if it's possible to get these options in my area (considering I wanted to build my own online)? Might be a stupid question but try throwing an Orlando zip code in (32816) and you'll see the huge difference in whats offered

It is, and will always be, just a Scion FR-S. You dont have any super-secret options, other than junk a dealer will rip you off for.

ETA: I have a dealer code for the turbo version. Will share for money.

While every option may not be worth the price, I'd still prefer a couple of the options offered. Simply wondering why they differ by area when I'm sure the dealers carry all that stuff in most locations. Maybe my question was misunderstood

I'm sure if you asked a local dealer they would be able to option out the car the way you want.

I sometimes wish that I asked for a free TRD exhaust during my negotiations.
