Do you think Scion will offer something similar to Miata's Brembo/BBS package?

Agreed.

But then we're also the only country that will weigh the cost of a new car against how many chicken McNuggets, toaster ovens or tennis shoes we can buy...

LMFAO!!!! Damn you! I was drinking a water while reading the comment and I bust out laughing. Now, my monitor is wet from spilling the water.

Yes, sad but true.

The Brembo upgrade on the ND Miata is only the front calipers. They paint match the rear calipers. It's not really a BBK; it's a front caliper upgrade. If you like the BBS wheels that it comes with, it's a good deal, but otherwise you can probably save money and get better braking going aftermarket.

For $3400 (the price of the Brembo/BBS upgrade), I could get a Stoptech BBK for the fronts, a can of caliper paint for the rears, and a set of Enkei RPF1s.

They should just make a sneaker shaped car bet lot's would buy it. Hopefully Honda can do it so we can hear: Vtec kick-ed in Yo!

Simply a personal preference, I don't need a FR-S right now, and if I don't like the new FR-S, I could always get the current one for even cheaper. Plus the Sachs dampers and Gazoo tuned chassis rumored for the facelifted model sounds interesting.
