Just got off the phone with Scion... FR-S release date late spring 2012

They said the Scion FRS was to be released late spring of next year (2012) and that there will NOT be limited production (availability will be the same as all other Scion models)! No word on pricing yet...

Thanks but we already kind of knew that.

The 1000 unit rumor was because someone fed Leeky false info/misspoke. And we know its a world release in April/May.

From what it looks like, both are scheduled for a spring release, I see April and May so perhaps Fr-S in April BRZ in May or vice versa

We eventually were going to give you a high-five for all of your gifts to the community...











The size of the high-five matches your contributions though.

Yup; and an opportunity to have all of the winter salt washed away from the road (if you live in a snowy climate like me!)
