Oh yeah. A little jealous of some bits, but we've upgraded some of that stuff already.

Yea most of the time, I have the part number to the part I want and have them pull it up on the system with graphic and I say yep..that's it.

That Illuminated badge will be the first thing to be diabled! Quivers....it detracts away from the "Sports Car" of the FR-S.

I have struggled since the debut of this car on what color I wanted. Looks like they made up my mind for me...lol.

Did anyone who watched the show hear they will be releasing ALL scion models with a new touchscreen?

That glowing emblem is ridiculous. I wonder if they ever do research on the demographic for this stuff. Same with the glowing shift knob. There's a reason so many of those "San Francisco" shops went out of business.

A huge fan of the 86 headlights and the dual climate control. The silver from that second picture actually looks pretty good. Hint of blue and frost. I think if you got some mean wheels on that it'd look pretty slick.

Feels like the "Scion" aspect once again ruins it. Toyota headlights and dual climate and Scion comes in with light up emblems and glowing shift knobs. It's no wonder we keep trying to distance ourselves from Scion and rebadging. The "Scionness" is clearly demonstrated in the glowing emblems.

Glowing emblem looks like a hybrid Toyota Prius badge or the Lexus hybrid badges, and 30k unless your a die hard scion or are bent on getting something as close to the 86 as possible..... A limited Brz will cost a little less and you get a bit more lol

Exactly how I feel. Glowing emblems, seriously Toyota?

From what I gathered, it only glows when you unlock the door. No mention of it staying on. Probably doesn't stay on.

I think with this being a limited car only in silver they should of had it with the stock wheels but in a solid dark color and the badges could have been the same color.

I would have preferred they did something like Ford did with the 2013 Mustang GT. When my friend unlocks his doors, the mirrors project a Mustang onto the ground. Something like Projecting the word FR-S from the side mirrors onto the ground next to the car would have been sick...instead...glowing emblems...Meh.

So basically it has everything in it that made me opt for a BRZ instead. Way to suck, Scion! Way. To. Suck. Oh well, I don't want a silver car with illuminated badges, anyway.
