Different front bumper/headlights, different interior, higher price tag. The Scion version will def be the better bargain.

Cheaper price tag makes it a no brainer unless you have cash to spend. Also, if you want to upgrade to nicer interior pieces from the BRZ, it should fit since it's the same car.

I wonder how this is gonna shake out,,, not gonna be very fast but if the pricing makes sense(unlike the IQ).. it is gonna be a winner...
needs boost though..get this car in 350hp range and it will be a nice driver

There are talks of a TRD S/C putting it at an estimated 280hp. I'll believe it when I see it though.

It is and it isn't.

I can say that the FR-S is not that heavy. I have the actual specs in front of me...

Are you speculating or do you know?

TRD’s most popular supercharger conversion is applied to the American market Tacoma pick up, boosting its 4-litre V6 engine from 233bhp to 301bhp suggesting that a 280bhp GT 86 with, critically, a massive boost in the low down torque the car currently lacks would be easily achieved.

I dont like the premium fuel thing. I guarantee it coulda been made to use regular which is about .30 cheaper. Hyundai/Kia and Ford can do it on turbo cars.
