Scion officially unveils FR-S concept.
Who knows when a production version will actually be out but still, it's a step closer...

So... is this that Fuji-Toyota thing that's been rumbling around for the past few years?
Any info on it? Supposed to be a RWD 2+2, right?
There's an anecdotal story that Toyota dealers told Mr Toyoda directly that if they were serious about making a full size truck (after the laughable T100), they'd better either produce a V8, or go home.
If this thing isn't packing 300 hp and priced in the low $20K range, they may as well go home. The base, "secretary's car" Mustang is a 305 hp V6 RWD, gets 19/31 MPG, and has a base price of $22,145... before any incentives are tossed at it.

check the GEneva autoshow version. it already had real world headlights and talilights. I hope they leave off the psudo- Sunfire-style light on the back. Regardless what version we ever get, it will be a hit with the senior discount crowd wanting to replace their aging Celica's and Solara's

I love it. I could see trading my 05 tC on it but maybe I'll be able to afford to keep both! Comments about power are moot, with a light weight chassis you don't need 300hp, leave that for the aftermarket anyway (look at Genesis coupe). I really hope they can bring this in under 3000lbs (even then that's a bit heavy for how small it looks).
