I am feeling the same way regarding navigation. I feel it would be worthwhile to get an aftermarket (maybe also Pioneer) head unit with Andriod Auto, Nav, and XM radio. I feel the Stock one overall is lacking.

I'm not sure but the navigation equipped versions use the same head unit. I wonder if it can be added. I really do not want to change anything about it. If I wanted to upgrade the car I would have bought a base version and not a limited version.

Picked up #352 from a dealership in South Florida. Loved the interior and paint color. Plus, they knocked off a considerable amount off of the MSRP. I use to own an 2004 S2k and my first car was an 86 Corolla GTS.

Awesome, I have #303. I was also able to knock them down almost 2k on price. Made me feel better about spending the money on a limited edition version.

Picked up 716 here in SE Georgia. Been looking to buy one of these ever since I saw the original release pics. Finally can justify it.
Interior sold me and love the color.

Yes. It depends if its sunny out, or overcast.

Darker, overcast times of the day , it is a khaki stone green ... like Yoda.

It's mostly a Subaru, and this color is actually a Subi color (Forester?). Not much about it being a Toyota (direct port injection... interior/exterior styling) , but color/mechanically it's Subaru.

I hear of left over '15 Auto FR-S selling at dealer cost (about $1500-1800 under msrp). You can probably get a deal on a RS2 Auto to some degree, but dealers know the manual is the one to get, and don't really deal on manuals. Pay the $29.5k + destination, or walk.

You can haggle with them.. My RS 2.0 manual was listed at almost 31K and I was able to get them down to 28500. It took about an hour and a call to a ford dealership to show them I was also series about getting a Focus ST if they didn't drop the price. They eventually did.

Howdy! New here also. I just brought #609 home yesterday. I got a great price on it. Apparently this dealer actually had three? Two autos and a manual. I lucked out with the last one being a manual
