May 08, 2013 - 8:41 AM - by AutoGuide.com


Scion announced pricing for its special 10 Series FR-S, which carries a $2,170 price premium over the normal manual model excluding delivery fees.


For the price, buyers get a special package celebrating the brand’s 10th anniversary. Those enhancements include dual automatic climate control, HID headlights, LED daytime running lights and 17-inch wheels.

The cabin gets a frameless rear view mirror, a dashboard electroluminescent panel, an illuminated shift knob on automatic models and glowing front and rear badges.

Scion is asking a $1,250 price increase for the automatic transmission and glowing shift knob, all of which bring the price to $28,675.

TGIF[R-S]: New Tires, Faster Car

Apr 19, 2013 - 12:54 PM - by AutoGuide.com


“The car just comes alive with a nice set of tires.” Those are the words of Toyota VP Bob Carter, which were ringing in my ear after a chat I had with him at the Detroit Auto Show in January.

Whether or not a drop-top version will transfer over to the Subaru BRZ or Scion FR-S in the U.S. is still unconfirmed, though it seems more likely for the Subie than the Scion due to cost. The BRZ sells at a price premium over the FR-S, and Subaru isn’t constrained by being a brand based around low-priced cars.
