2013's ? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

When I was looking for my car I had been offered a 2013 10 Series that was new in the lot at Merced Toyota. I never bought it. Went with 2015 in San Diego. Are the 10 series that unpopular to not be purchased? Mind boggling to me. I still go to the Merced dealer to look around when bored and its still there.

2500 may have been too many to sell as an FR-S limited edition. Scion seems to be reducing the number each time (2000 for Monograms, 1500 for RS1.0). Obviously they see that they aren't selling the numbers they predicted.

What killed the 10 Series is barely 6-months later they came out with the Monogram. And for $25 less on MSRP you could get Alcantara/Leather heated seats, Nav, spoiler, a rear seat armrest

, and your choice of color.

Plus free removal of the ricetastic light up badges, because the Monogram comes without them in the first place.

I actually like those, but not for the price. Plus that color is ugly IMO.

A light pearl silver that shimmers blue is ugly? To each his own..........

Yep, 10 series owners really should have been compensated somehow. They got screwed. I actually feel bad for them.

stevethuro · 12-01-2014, 12:28 PM

I like mine. Got is for 24k too!

The FRS is such a good deal at 25K, but is pushing the threshold at 30K.

Bummmer!!!! I like the switches in there. Oh well too late.

FirestormFRS · 12-01-2014, 10:06 PM

The color.....that color just has no appeal. There are 2 10 series on the lot near here. They came from another lot that abandoned Scion.

Damn that sounds sad as hell.
