The Mattle Black TRD Bumper Appliqué makes the rear look better in my opinion.

I compared my 308 Dino to the FR-S. Both have about the same width and length. 308 height is 4" less. Both weigh about 2800 lb. Driver position in the 308 is way up near the front wheels due to its 3 Liter V8 mid engine. FR-S driver is way back near the rear wheels. Incredible to realize these cars are 40 years apart. 1975 to 2015. Of course there were no Ferraris in 1935 so here is a Lancia 40 years older than the 308 as a comparision: Last edited by ic-racer; 06-06-2015 at 09:15 PM. |

Hi all! Just wondering how's the ride on the RS with the TRD wheels. Thinking about getting one and use it as a daily driver.

I'm starting to see RS 1.0s used and back on the Dealer lots and a few with already 10K miles. Do you think some of these were repo'd?

Up here, someone traded theirs in for a Tundra. One of the things they said was, "Not fast enough." Of course, this guy looked like he bought it based on its looks, not its merits.

In our spare parts group some kid was parting out his Leased RS 1.0. It was a hoot.

Can't wait to see how big that bill from Toyota will be when he turns it in.
