Thanks for positing the videos! They really show how well the car was handling this track.

I'll cross link some photos from another forum when I get home. Someone there was at trd when those cars were being wrapped and modded.

I've been lurking the forum for a while information gathering. I was on the fence about this car until today. I drove it at that event in Baltimore and man... No doubt in my mind I want this car now. Unfortunately that means I'll probably be pretty far down a waiting list but it will be worth the wait. Thanks for posting the awesome picture and videos here!

One question, do you guys remember what the reps said about those TRD add ons being dealer options? Is that added at dealer or at port?

I believe they will be dealer added options but the particular cars at the event were shipped over with the TRD parts. I am in the same situation as you with this car. I was on the fence but there was no way I would pre order one without driving it first. Driving it made me want it now!

To my knowledge, TRD addons are going to be dealer parts, but they will not become available until winter of 2012.

Nice pics! I was there as well. Agree, the handling and balance of the car was great out on the course. Cornered very flat, and the damping was well matched to the TRD springs. The exhaust was perfect in terms of noise level. Not too loud, not too quiet.

Great idea for Scion to introduce the FR-S through an autox course. I'll put up my thoughts/pics tomorrow.
