Jack's the genuine article. Passionate about what he does and is a straight shooter. Like all corporate folks he has limits he can't pass but even then you can tell he wants to tell you. Spoke with him several times during the day and enjoyed all of it. His interactions with his own staff and the drivers was just as regular Guy.

Jack Hollis answered questions on the first 86 cars. He made it clear they will be the first 86 delivered but not necessarily first 86 by VIN due to manufacturing processes and Toyota numbers are not necessarily consecutive or specific between brands due to logistics. First Scions have been built, he mentioned about 300. They are looking at ways to mark the first 86 but they probably wont be numbered.

Also sounded like most accessories, including BeSpoke, may not be available until somewhere between 1st86 deliveries and general availability.

Ehhhh? Wow did that one sneak in under the radar.

Can you find out more like what is the intended/desired performance benefit?

TRD supercharger would fit where in that tight engine bay?

Rabble · 04-07-2012, 06:29 AM

TRD supercharger was rumored to be in the works for a while.

Can you have Scion retrofit that SC and still maintain full warranty, that is the question....

Turbowned · 04-07-2012, 12:17 PM

I wonder how it would work warranty-wise if someone wanted to put a TRD S/C on a BRZ....

Verge · 04-08-2012, 04:44 AM

Anymore info on the release series that is coming? So want TRD edition.

Did Jack, or anyone else, say when we should be getting our e-mails to sign for the cars?

Not sure, but I will go with aftermarket sport seat instead of racing bucket seat. Too extreme.
