2013 MT Whiteout Scion FR-S. Yes, I know it's a "downgrade" from a luxury convertible, but I am 20 and I think it just suits me more. It was between the FR-S or a CT 200h F-Sport. And frankly, I didn't wanna lose too much performance with the CT. I will enjoy having Bluetooth and a more shifty car, but I will miss my leather and all the little Lexus ammenities. The good thing is that this car has a lot better technology and will be cheaper to mod.

Sad to see you go bud, but enjoy that FR-S! They look real sharp!

My brother just bought an FR-S (GT-86 in this part of the world).. Very nice little car, extremely fun and well built but its no SC IMO.. I wouldn't give up my SC for the Scion.. They're worlds a part (and were both built to be just that).

Best of Luck

20 huh; get the car you want and then 10 years down the road regret that you didn't keep the SC!!

20 years old and a $25K brand new car. I don't know where to start.

Some of us have all it all made. Debating between an SC and a brand new car.

I'll always love my SC. In the future I'd like to have another one, but mine has 127,000 miles and I'd like to get a newer one with less miles when I finish law school. I know it's a total different car, but I have so much fun driving FR-S.

BBBut, won't you miss the V8 ?

Just joking, congrats on the new FRS. Very pretty looking car.

Haha I will definitely miss that and my torque that is 2 times more than the FR-S at the crank. Thanks though. I already have a tune and exhaust parts almost ordered. That should make the car more powerful, as other people have already dynoed gains of about 35 whp with an exhaust/tune/drop in filter. Now I just need to get the right driver mod . It's my first manual.

Good luck Husker. Just don't be like a Honda S2K that I once saw which had as its registration, "2Late V8". We will still have more grunt unless you do something pretty radical to that 4 cylinder engine.

Wish I could have a manual trans - been banned cos one member of my family cannot drive stick... Nothing as involving as shifting on your own without a computer to decide for you. Enjoy !

husker741

Yeah I'm pretty excited to have total control over the transmission. I'm hoping that TRD's supercharger will be something worth actually purchasing (it won't). But like I said, I will definitely go back to an SC someday. Along with an ISF, GSF, LFA, and whatever other F Lexus makes.. I can dream can't I?

Sounds like you have your life put together, good luck bro!

FR-S for the win!
