2016 Scion FR-S -- official feature page

Here is the link to the official 2016 Scion FR-S "build-it" page (at Scion):






http://www.scion.com/cars/FR-S2016/index.html




Apparently now available. Some changes in colors are apparent, with the new red being especially nice ("Ablaze").

Pretty sure I can tell the target demographic though.

Wow, $26.1k, glad that's with the delivery fee and such, seems like it creeps up a couple hundred bucks per year...

So? Could buy a house for that, or an old supercar.

How about a Luxury car powered by a V12 instead of a puny four-banger?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mercedes-Ben...m=311410393989

If you want a light (under 3,000 lbs), new, mass produced, RWD, coupe for under $50k there is no alternative.

Wait, I just checked the page and saw this? When I went to the colors and then back to the spec page, this info was gone. Possible slip up from Scion/Toyota? I wonder if there's more in store for 2016 than we know?

If the fastest laptime per dollar is what you crave neither car is the best option, if you want the fastest car without changing anything off the showroom floor then you won't have much competition in the real world, too many people would rather cover the deficiencies and introduce a bunch of variables.

As for upset, I'm pretty happy. I think I bought one of the most fun cars money can buy, if I had more I'd try some more cars out and be positive, but for me a Mustang doesn't even enter the top 50.

hah, good editing skills. And then someone will say this is why no one knows anything at all about the 2016 BRZ, it is like it is totally disappeared.
