@competing with the tC2...
right the two cars are in different categories
but as far as withing Scion...the tC and the xB are the highest sellers/modders...the FR-S is anticipated to blow that all away and be the "top scion"

@FR-S Competition...
its between the Genesis and the Civic as stated...the Civic (Honda) has status just like Scion while Hyundai does not.....HOWEVER the Genesis actually gives u the most bang for your buck...the problem...its a Hyundai. oh well

@TRD...
i'm sure this car...and any car....modded will look nice. thats why i want to see what it looks stock...its a difference maker. compared to the concept that has be advertised all over the place...i feel disappointed. the stock FR-S looks like the tC1 in that it doesnt have the aggressive lines. the body shape is very bubbly...something i'm very happy with the tC2 vs the tC1. u'd think scion would learn...well at least this one would have 2 reverse lights

 

24 k its just an est price it could be more or less it will be official at tokyo car show in dec for me i think its a good looking car with or without trd parts it has subaru boxter engine and toyota reliabilty which i think its great its not always about hp and torque but anyways i think this RWD sports coupe from toyota-subaru will make alotta noise and also im sure it will be a love it or hate it kind a car just like all the scions!!

 

I thought they said the Subaru boxer engine would only be in the Subaru version of the car

 

Well if it's not a set price. Then I'll buy one for 22k maybe 23. So I can install some turbo!

 

The boxer engine is for both versions toyota and subaru and im guessing 24k maybe i hope for a standard 22 k

 

all of my direct toyota sources say 24k

 

i guess the camero 2010 was the only car ever to TOTALLY replicate the concept that came out in 2006

 

Here's a article that was just put up on Car and Driver. Talks a little bit about the relationship between Toyota and Subaru during the project. And more specs on the car.

they ALSO refer to the toyota version as a CELICA....

 

24K for a car with no guts?! No thanks. Plenty of other quality cars out there in the 300 h.p. range for 24k. It's a nice design, it needs 2 more cylinders and a turbo option.

 

Interesting that the cusco strut tower bar has pivot points...99% of the people on this forum tried to argue with me that that was the reason the ebay strut bar was not functional .

 

comparing an ebay bar to CUSCO......

 

Sure am, I'd love for someone to point out the differences to me between the two pieces (That doesn't include "well, that one is from ebay, so it must suck compared to this really expensive one!").

 

What the #@$# 24k for that? ouch. Had high hopes for the FR-S, sad.

 

Sad.....why sad bro 24 k its just an est price but for 24 k light weight rwd sports coupe from toyota its sad awwwww i hate when people just talk without the knowledge ...

 

24,000.... which trim line? If that's the low end with 16" steel wheels, LSD only with the MT, just seems weak, and pushes most people to buy the higher end version at what price? What add-on options?

2011 tC, $18,9xx? Most folks with any options couldn't get out the door under 20k or higher with a decent radio... sooo 24k, add any options, 25 or 26k or more? Just saying you are getting near the 30k range with options, which seems high for even 13lb/hp unless you are buying this only to race and pure numbers are your goal. ...and if that's true, to bad the stripped down version may not be sold here with no A/C etc letting you shed another 100lbs. At least they are using the AISIN transmissions.

...and as an aside, 197hp at the crank? Estimate at the wheels?

 

COME see me and i'll not only point it out i'll also take you for a ride....

 

I don't know if this link will work..
