Why not just get the BRZ limited? Seems like most of the options are what FRS owners didn't care about.

Because some FRS owners do care about them.

The monogram series appears on the website where I ordered my company lease vehicle. All of our employee lease vehicles are made-to-order. It is coming.

I angst over the exhaust decision and after hearing the TRD exhaust went with the Perrin 2½" catback, saved $300 compared to invoice price (we worked with the same Regional Distribution Manger most likely) and am glad I did. A great feature of the Perrin is the ability to swap between resonated and unresonated for a $240 midpipe which I did. The unres sound struck me as perfect and saved another 5 lbs. Plus come resale time you'll have the OEM exhaust to swap out, a win-win. PIO warranty is nice, but it only takes an hour to swap out exhausts and the bonding time while appreciating FR-S design and engineering from below makes it all worthwhile.

Well, after I posted here last night I got one of those 'hey your lease is up lets make a deal emails' from Leith Toyota here in Raleigh.
So I told them 'as soon as the Monogram series is ready for the FR-S I'll take one'. They told me they're checking allocation and will call me with the final details. I'll update this post if I get any kinda of delivery confirmation info. |

They attempted to actually order, but the 2014 model codes aren't populated yet. He was able to confirm the content of the monogram series as what is posted earlier.
Soon as something changes, they're gonna let me know. |

![]() Do I spy? by Moto@Club4AG, on Flickr Here's a shot from Scion HQ, taken a week ago. ![]() It is 37J (Whiteout) and has Auto AC, HID/LED headlights, frame-less center mirror, seat heaters, and other things I mentioned earlier. Not sure if this is a prototype for something, or if it is indeed a Monogram Series, but it looks to be really close... No idea when the expected launch or availability, (or if this will be available) as I said, unless the statement is confirmed by Toyota Motor Sales USA, it isn't anything official.
