Second Scion FR-S crashed in California

<H1>Just saw this tonight. Way to go. I like my 85.00 monthly insurance premium and I would like to keep it.



The Scion FR-S may not be that exotic but considering the fact that this is brand new and, from my point of view, a hot car to own, finding this image on wreckedexotis.com made us want to share. According to our source, the Japanese sports car in question has been crashed into a trash can after its driver tried to drift into a corner. Let that be a lesson to all of you, if you can’t drive, before you say “watch this!”, think that you might end up in the trash.
As a quick reminder, the Scion FR-S is powered by the Subaru borrowed 2.0 liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder Boxer engine, equipped with Toyota’s D-4S direct injection system. The unit is developing a total output of 200 horsepower at 7,000 rpm and it has a peak torque of 151 lb-ft available at 6,600 rpm. According to the car manufacturer, the engine in the Scion FR-S can be mated to a six-speed manual transmission in standard or to a six-speed automatic as optional. Prices for the Scion FR-S start at 24,930 USD.

A trash can did all that? Tough can!
