Discovery SCION FRS in Recent 86 Video Review.

So Yesturday someone posted this video, Credits to him for finding it and it revealed that this Orange Prototype car had a Scion Emblem on it. We assumed that it was a FRS.

Video 1 (Scion Emblem)

Now today someone else who was very nice to find us a new video(Credits to him) Gave us another 86 review. Now it shows the same Orange car this time it's running around. Notice the difference between the Silver 86.

Differences that I noticed so far is that the exhaust is different, and I am 99% sure that it is the FRS in the first vid because of the position of the car and the prototype parking in the first video, the wheels with no Toyota Emblem.
The dates of Early October Also matched.


Vid (New 86 review with FRS)

There you have it people, your first look at a running FRS,Enjoy.

That second video is awesome, regardless of which car it is. Nice find.

That was a damn good engine note. And when he entered into a drift, it was so damn smooth. The straightening out wasn't violent at all..

To OP:
nice vids!

but i don't see a resemblance in either car in the first and second video other than the exterior color. There's no exhaust sound in the first vid and the wheel in the 2nd vid has a different colored steering wheel. Plus, we are unable to see the logo of the badge on that steering wheel.

But maybe you caught more than me. lol

Hmm To what I'm seeing here is the interior shown in-the second video is actually of the silver car. I almost want to say he wasn't driving the orange one at all and most of the shots are done from the silver car.

The ending shows the orange FRS parked right in front of the Prototype, just like the first vid and another coincidence is that the first vid and the description of the second says early October, the first vid was posted in oct 15. So that's where I went on, I really do think that orange is an FRS.

Sorry man I don't think it's the same, I'd agree with you except for one thing...the steering wheel is different in the second video the Fr-S steering wheel isn't red. Cool video though thanks

The Possible FRS is the orange car..he is not driving the orange car, but the silver one.

I think the Headlight housing of the Scion version will be different too. Scion probably have 2 styles for headlight housing, LED and Non LED.
