Hmmm only thing I was disappointed with is the climate control buttons and the push start button. Otherwise, looks fine with me! Though waiting to see how Subaru's US BRZ might respond price wise.

Btw... is whiteout color the same as the one on the GT86 and the BRZ?

Its a terrible name -_-;

what happen here? .. they just ruined the interior . Nice Work Scion. very disappointed ...Good luck.

If you want to sell the car at a cheaper price, at least don't make it look cheap (Idiots)

who cares about the color names seriously?

im just disappointed it doesnt have black housing headlights. the BRZ looks meaner with their blacked out housing headlights. the FRS front bumper is an improvement if there is a difference from the GT86 bumper. foglights will improve the look as well.

Cost yes, not a ton of weight. It would have been nice to get either version from Scion to have the Toyota's bumper, headlights, etc.. now unless you can option the hell out of it, to get the other stuff you need to go with the Subaru possibly. That's disappointing to me. Some of the high spec stuff I don't want, but the brakes, seats, HIDs, etc I do. 50lbs isn't going to bother me.

I'm bitter I guess because I wanted more info

Argento looks like a nice silver it's darker then the BRZ's silver from what it looks like.

Of course the US version official picks are of an Automatic.

This is what they think our stereotype customer wants...sad but probably too.

I see the JDM market for parts for this car getting real big, real expensive, real fast.

Not really. The 225 rears were always on the optional 18" wheels. That may still be the case. The stock size with stock 17s was always 215/45/17 all around. Staggered in this car will just increase understeer anyways.

Price is a factor.. I'll take the auto tranie with the paddle shifters. Best of both worlds if your driving the LA Freeways..

Funny color names, nice car. I like the tail lights better than the 86 as well. Just ready for the price.
