You mean the Toyota 86 right? Since the Scion FRS does not have production any further, therefore does not exist. Poof!! Gone, history.
Scion name plate has died and along with it Toyota's failure to deal with the buying power of millennials.
Personally, I see Mr. Toyoda as a cheesy loser. In his questionable wisdom he hoped to resuscitate his lack luster Scion brand by the infusion of a sports car. The 2007 FRS car shown at the auto shows had a V6/hybrid. Great acceptance. Cool performance. Then this oriental chump cheaped out, bought a engine plant and incorrectly chose to make this car a piss poor performance car with a puke engine. His desperate designers moved the compression to 12:1 in a failing attempt to make a "performance" sports car.
My decades old 1988 SC has Toyota stated performance at 0-60 at 6.85 seconds. This puke car does the same at 7.2 seconds with a hefty 12:1 ratio?? Gimme a break, this car is pig. Period.
The further failure of old man Toyoda to update this car's performance after several years is a indication he KNEW Scion was failing and didn't not want to invest in a failing attempt to a failing company.
Let's say Toyoda's FRS is the Ford Edsel of it's time. :surprise:
