To: All Scion Dealers March 20, 2012

Subject: 2013MY Scion FR-S Price Announcement

Scion is pleased to announce the starting price of $24,200 for the highly awaited 2013MY Scion.

FR-S which will arrive at Scion dealerships in June. Even with DPH, the starting price is still under $25,000!

2013MY Scion FR-S Highlights:
This high performance sports car is the fifth model to join the Scion family. Inspired by the
Toyota AE86, FR-S is designed around the core goal of achieving, “Pure Balance.” This
balance begins with the use of the world’s only front-engine, rear-wheel drive configuration
using a flat boxer engine.
Some of the great standard features on FR-S include:
• 2.0 liter, 200 horsepower, naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine
• Toyota’s cutting edge D-4S injection system with direct and port
injection
• 6-speed manual transmission that offers quick precise shifts with a short
throw
• 6-speed automatic transmission with rev-match and steering-wheel
mounted paddle shifters
• Torque Sensing Limited Slip Differential
• 17-inch alloy wheels and ventilated disc brakes
FR-S’s interior ****pit instantly exudes a “sports car” feel. The front sports seats are shaped to
accommodate manual shifting and support longitudinal and lateral G-force. The leather
wrapped 3-spoke sports steering wheel, utilizes the smallest diameter in the Scion lineup.
The idea of “Pure Balance” is further realized by FR-S’s lightweight design and compact size.
This allows the car to be quick and nimble into and out of corners. This combination is further
proof that Scion is truly “Bringing the Sport Back to the Car.”
The FR-S will be available in seven colors including Raven, Asphalt, Hot Lava, Argento,
Ultramarine, Firestorm and Whiteout.

Pricing Summary Documents:
MSRP for the FR-S six-speed manual and six-speed sequential automatic transmissions are $24,200 and $25,300 respectively.

Model Transmission Description 2013 Base
MSRP
6253 6MT FA20 $24,200
6252 6AT FA20 $25,300

All prices listed above exclude the Delivery, Processing, and Handling (DPH) fee
Pricing will be announced to the public on Thursday, March 22, 2012. Please keep this
information confidential until Thursday, March 22, 2012. Pricing details will be available in
the Scion FR-S Price Guides posted in the “Secure Area” for Dealer Principals on Dealer Daily.
Please contact your Regional Office or local administrator if you have any questions.

Well you wouldn't expect a 200 HP car to be that fast in the 1/4 mile. This car wasn't exactly made for straight line speed.

if i got one it would be for around town driving and autocross...

but yeah the acceleration times are bad even though i expected them to be slow..but thats real damn slow.... would have to get a bumper sticker to say "dont race me...my other car is a GTR "

the limited trim car has like leather and alcantara seats push button start and a spoiler for supposedly 28K.... for almost 30K even though i know thats not the point that just doesnt make sense its that slow to be so light..... the turbo version should be like 5.5 0-60 and maybe like a 14.1 1/4 mile

Ok, sorry but that is pathetic, especially for 2012.
Just looked up old 240sx times and the 240sx was faster by a a little bit..I mean come on, this is suppose to be something amazing I though.

The car appears to be awesome but those acceleration #'s have me wondering if its making something like 185-190hp not quite 200hp.

The Civic SI weighs over 100lbs (~2900lbs vs. ~27XXlbs.) more with the same ~200hp yet blows the BR-Z's doors off... 0-60: 6.3sec vs. 7.3 and 1/4mile: 14.8@96 vs. 15.3@92.

Hell even the MX-5 Maita runs 0-60: 6.5-6.7 sec and 14.9@93 for the 1/4mile.. But then again its power to weight ratio is similar to the Civic si / BR-Z.

I'm not saying the BR-Z isn't worth it or anything I'm just wondering about the 200hp figure which seems over-rated considering the #'s....

Otherwise the BR-Z appears to be one of the best driver's cars out there along side the likes of the S2K, MX-5, RX-8, Boxster/ Cayman.

So it seems if driving is what you desire it wouldn't make much sense to spend more than ~26K on one of these BR-Z's. I'm torn....

The BR-Z is obviously not for those lacking in the genitalia debt.

MT tested it to be slightly faster than the Miata.
