Another huge factor many have not addressed is whether or not you'll be modifying the car immediately or let the warranty expire first. Based on your posts you won't be doing much modifying. I'd say get the 2015 with a color you actually prefer for a little more. Also remember the 10 series may be a limited run, but it's still technically a 2 year old car already.

IMO I would wait till the 15 comes out so you can look at the color in person as pictures dont do anything justice seeing the car and color in person will help you decide if you like the color scheme or not. And if you don't just get the older models or the 10 series like you said in New England the FR-S are almost a dime a dozen at dealerships at least when I went to buy my 14 whiteout I saw monogram and 10 series and other various colors all over the dealer lots.

Leaning towards a 15. Right now, rebates on 10 series 13s are 2K. If Inventory of 13s doesn't go down by the time 15's Roll in, I would think Toyota will become more aggressive.

there are a LOT of awesome creature comforts on the 10 that you don't think you want until you actually have them. Auto Climate Control and Push Button with SmartKey are absolutely clutch and I couldn't imagine the car without it. The Silver Ignition paint adds a touch of class to the silver car and makes it look very Porsche'esque. Plus the 2014 Navi Unit it comes with is leaps and bounds over the 2013 radio.
I LOVE my 10 Series and would ONLY trade it for a Monogram Convertible and ONLY if it was available in Silver Ignition. Plus if it's $23k that's a good 6k less than I paid for mine.......

10 series all the way! Love the push start and touch to unlock. And the HIDs. It may be an older model year but the mileage will hopefully show it doesn't have two extra years of driving on it :-P

If you're ok with the color, I'd go with the silver 10 series. That's a great price for the amount of features that you get.
I'm not a big fan of the color, but my coworker saw one on the road and excitedly came up to me the next day saying how great it looks. So there are definitely people out there who love that color.

Get the 10. Price is outstanding.
By the time the '15 comes out I'm sure that 10 will be long gone (at that price). Never heard of the halo color, is it a white? Silver Ignition actually has the potential to appear white under certain lighting. Plus, those headlights!

Ok, great arguments for the 10 Series. When I get home in 10 days, if it's still available, I may just grab it!

Ok, I'm getting swayed back to the 10 Series. Either way, it's an FR-S, so there is no loss either way.
I'm out of town til the 24th. If the 10 Series is still in stock, I'm going to take a serious look at it and maybe grab it. |
