Ha, reminds me in the beginning when I wanted to put a deposit down on a BRZ. No one knew about them, except for one person and he barely knew about it.

So just make them aware of it if you really want this 10 series FRS.

I'm getting the same shift knob that's in my FJ Cruiser TRD S/E but will first try fit, the FJ shaft is pretty thick.

looks like my guy will lock one up for me as soon as it hits the computer manual transmission. I knew there was a reason why I didn't install any of my mods yet lol!

That's one sweet ass shift knob it will match the interior perfectly. If I am not mistaken the thread size of the FRS is M12x1.25 which should be the same as your FJ.

thank you. glad I stumbled across this thread it was very helpful. I was being told by everyone to wait till 2014!!! He's telling me I'll get the car in about a month. I got the manual of course. I will install all my TRD parts then. Cancelling my Euro Headlights, glad I didnt take them out of the box lol. thanks again everyone. soooooo excited!

Others here who've seen it found it unique and difficult to describe, saying no pictures have done it justice. Apparently it changes color from silver pearl to a blue hue to match the lighted badges depending on light. I posted earlier that the color code is new to Lexus/Toyota/Scion. Definitely need to get a protective coat of polish, sealer and wax (Griot's) laid down quickly to protect the soft paint.

Ordered mine on 4/16 ans sales rep told me the car will be in the between the first two week of June. Two month wait isn't so bad but June couldn't come any sooner.
