DealerFR-S · 12-26-2013, 05:26 PM

Im just done argueing about it all. People can say what they want its fine. But we dont add parts to new cars period. And it just got here this morning and wont be in our system to sell to the public till tomorrow. And whoever the person you talked to here wouldnt know what we have here that just got in. So im sorry for the confusion and whoever wants to come to my dealership and see it in person is welcome. But why keep trying to prove me wrong and just be happy i have one to show you? Hope all my info was helpfull to whoever wanted to see one and for the ones that are trying to call me out for whatever reason, im sorry you dont beleave me. But its here and thats that. Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to all!

I still can't tell if you're saying the car is a Monogram or not. Mind clarifying? And I understand that your store may not add "parts" to new cars, but we're also talking your distributor, Southeast Toyota, as an independent operator with policies and procedures that may differ from TMS.

Also if this was a monogram shouldn't there be the leveling switch for the HIDs here?

Fett4Real · 12-26-2013, 05:50 PM

wow....that escalated quickly.

Well thanks for clearing that up. I'll be sure to give you a call when the 2015 FR-S Turbo Hybrid arrives.

BUT the port DOES...you should know that. Like the LED strip things in the fog light spots some dealers got cars with them added on like the rear truck area protector, spoiler, etc. Fugi motors doesnt add that stuff

acg2010 · 12-26-2013, 07:22 PM

That definitely looks to be a bone stock interior of a 2014 and definitely looks like Winjets.

What I find odd about using the "monogram" moniker for the equivalent of a BRZ Limited, is that Scion seems to be using the "monogram series" in the iQ (I know different car, but with Scion the release series are the same across models, the anniversary was the same across models etc. to a point - I know the FRS has HIDs and some other features that say the TC doesn't) for a car with a two tone paint job and a limited edition.

I've read this thread and maybe it's been posted and I missed it, but here's the monogram series iQ from scion.com's blog:

Seems odd they'd use it as a name for 150 limited iQ's and then use it for a mass produced trim level variant of the FR-S. Just my .02

Monogram = 2014 model with aftermarket headlights.

Good point... and scary! There's a 99% chance Scion will screw it up and make it a queer looking limited edition again. And they wonder why nobody buys them...

Mikem53 · 12-27-2013, 10:33 AM

I guess you can't blame some for being confused. These numerous "limited" Editions are really lackluster and hard to distinguish from the basic models.
Options from other standard models and glowing badges aren't exactly creating excitement for many. That and the fact that they keep coming out every few months is only exciting to the marketing folks.
When they come out with a track package or something stronger under the hood.. Maybe people will take notice and not be confused about what the offering is.. Even the dealers might notice too..
