On the way home from picking up my FRS I actually had an AE86 line up next to me an was trying hard to get my attention. I guess they wanted to say hi or something but they surely were digging my car. Mostly everyone I know just loves how the red sticks out and how sporty the car looks. Most people ask if I payed 40k for the thing.

I live in a snobby neighborhood and part of town.. we have lots of BMW's , Lexus, vettes, etc..
I was at a light stopped and a BMW pulled up alongside.. I saw him looking at my car.. I looked over at him and he suddenly looked away..
Like "I can't be seen looking at a Scion" LOL

After a year of owning my FR-S, I can confirm that the hype has died down. Now I just get people rolling their eyes at me like some Genesis owner.

Were they hot?

Guy who owns a Porsche 997 at work, told me he loved my car. I told him his was not to shabby either.

My 3rd (third as in generation not number) cousin who id really like to bang, told me she fantasized about driving the car.

I've said too much. I must go. Don't judge me, she is so hot.

There are a lot of times I am in a store and can see people looking at my car in the parking lot. Makes me feel good

First night I brought my car home, my neighbor from across the street was smoking outside. I parked the car in the driveway and from my rear view mirror I can see him trying to get a better look in the dark. As I got out he asked "Is that the new Scion?" I said "Yeah" and he remarked "That's a sweet ride"

Another guy at the gas station comes over from his car and commented "Nice car" and asked how I liked it. All I could say was it handles real well.

I've lost count how many times other drivers on the road craning their necks or looking back at their rear view mirror to check out the car.

Coming from a Honda Accord, I'm not used to the kind of attention this car gets.
