still doesn't make a lot of sense to post it here. if you want results you should post it in japanese on a site where owners from japan frequent.

It is an actual FRS. I'm willing to bet people in the US would buy RHD 86s if the laws here allowed us to.

You're goddamn right! Being different gets you noticed. Most people like getting noticed. That's the entire point of the USDM > JDM > USDM swapping.

All they have to do is buy the badges

They have the lower spec 86 which is our FRS. I'm not sure why someone with the GT HID/LED headlights would dumb it down to halogen

Speaking of being different, there are actually people who will buy the Scion FR-S as an import...for example in the Philippines..(56.8k)

http://www.sulit.com.ph/index.php/vi...Position,1-1,1

The GT 86 there is about 44k
