I don't know who modified this thread but my intent was to get the tc2 owners opinion not everyone who owns a tc or another scion that's why it was in the tc2 thread!

When I graduate college, I'll buy the FR-S...I'm so tempted to keep modding my tC2 but at this rate it seems like its just wasting money. Parting out is difficult.

I plan on trading my xb2 in for one of them or selling mine. Anyone know when the SC version of the FR-s is going to come out? VERY interested in that one

i think its kind of dumb to knock a car for "warranty issues" because it has nothing to do with the car itself. if the dealership wont help u and u dont want to deal with warranty issues...then try to fix it yourself and dont deal with any of it. sure maybe they "should" do something or whatever, but if they dont...its no reason to say this car is bad
toyota dealer and scion corp. have been great. have worked free of charge on non warranty items. scion paid to stay in vegas free, unlimited alchohol, fed me, and gave me 2 credit cards.

How would he get a BRZ? they're europe only correct?

It'd be silly to have Fr-s and BRZ sold in the states.

It's my understanding from all the articles I read that the brz has a us release of spring 2012.

Yes it seems silly to have both sold in the states. But they are both going to be and I'm sure advantages/disadvantages between them will show up.

I own a 2010 xb, but like the are two different machines I will keep my microwave on wheels and the FR-S if it comes in TRD version Like the BRZ STI, and from what I read the BRZ STI is non turbo, for now and it has a bunch of badged parts that are not worth the buy. Like this duh soooo necesary

I'm interested in seeing what the RS will come with. I liked the content of the tC2 RS, so maybe it will be worth the wait...?

If not, I'll probably find a used 370Z with my name on it.

Sat in the FR-S today and I must say I'm impressed. It's not flashy but the layout is good. Materials are far superior to the tC2 and the seats are to DIE FOR!

Still waiting for an RS though haha.

i wanna give a shout out to all my tc2 peeps..... whats up ____ers lol.... um my situation is i drive a 92 honda civic hatchback with a b18 swap so its got a little go and its fun to drive but i am 27 years old, i am making decent money and instead of trading in our(mostly my wife's) lowered and slightly carboned tc2, i'm thinking of selling my car and picking up a fr-s. but like everyone else i have my hesitations. such as yeah new cars come out and they do have problems. also we were going to trade in our tc2 for a mitsubishi evolution x . ..all wheel drive . . . . .factory turbo. . but honestly the interior looked like it came out of an early 90's vehicle.so to cut along story short . . .i didnt like the the tc2 when we had our tc1 . .untill we went and not only saw it in person and test drove. so before we decide . . we need to drive . . .but yeah i'm inlove with what i have seen so far.

Um. No. The FR-S is a bit on the small side, and I like hanging a functional back seat.

I strongly considered a Mustang, but found the rear seat too small. If you're gonna dive an FR-S, you're clearly going for fun over function. Just grab an MX-5 Miata, skip the vestigial rear seat and get an an open top roadster!

I knew the ft-86 was in the works when I bought my tC. I wish the tC wasn't saddled with wrong-wheel drive, but it's not a true sports car, so that's acceptable.

I would love to have a Scion F-rs but I am in a different spot in my life..

Also I would want to wait until there is an F-rs Turbo as my current scion is putting out 320 HP and I hate to downgrade ...

How many tc2 owners are thinking about trading their tc in for the f-rs or brz?
If I do trade mine in it would be for an rs series and I've come across the pics of the TRD frs Toyota version and the frs with the modellista kit.
