Scion of N\A won't release this. They have flagging sales this quarter as it is without adding catfish to the line-up. I imagine this will be JDM only, with some very small amount of sales in the EUDM.

I don't think so. They were aiming it at a women in Japan. The idea was to up the luxury feel in the interior and make the outside look less like a tuner car and more "classy" / less aggressive...... They wouldn't completely replace the current design with this, because it's meant to be a "cool" tuner car.

Fine with me if they bring it here. I don't think it looks that bad, and if the Chickadees like it, what do I care?? Just be more cars needing more support; not a bad thing.

Now that I think about it, I bet at least one girl will buy one, trick it out on the inside, and blow away some of the male tuners by out driving them. That should enliven this dull and dreary board!!

Yet another stupid release, sigh.

This is the ugliest car I've seen since my buddy picked me up in his wifes Nissan Cube. They should be ashamed of themselves!

Definitely different... It'll be interesting to see how many guys here do the cB conversion for the JDM scene points

Can I do it simply because I like it?

Ugh, have no desire for JDM yo.

"CB" was meant to stand for "cool beauty" if anyone didn't know already. Toyota loses some cool points for that.

FRSupra · 02-13-2015, 10:04 PM

"Beautiful brilliance that extends beyond time and place" well it doesn't get more Japanese than that..

...but Driving Kids with Toyota... LOL

Rampage · 02-13-2015, 10:10 PM

Hey, what if that thing has better aero than the regular FR-S? The function > form guys might be all over it.

Vracer111 · 02-13-2015, 10:12 PM

You know what I just thought of - why did they not go with a Ferrari 246 Dino look for the front instead....

GT/86 · 02-14-2015, 12:24 AM

Fogly not my taste

campy · 02-14-2015, 01:18 AM

The more I look at it, the more I like it.

What's the difference between Pure Red and the current red? they look pretty similar to me.

Holy shit, I have to copy and paste this somewhere, this totally kills the statements of naysayers saying Tada San was just cheap and such and is good evidence against the power war
