it better be light or the genesis will destroy this thing | The article said 350 lbs more than an AE86, so should be around 2700 lbs. From pure power/weight comparison:
AE86: ~20.5lb/hp
FRS: ~13.5lb/hp
Gen coupe: 12lb/hp

Based the numbers on the 2013 274hp 2.0T. The V6 isn't in the same league price wise

not sure if its been mentioned or if anyones seen it
but the latest top gear magazine has the brz/86 on the cover and an article
they seem to love it but what's interesting is they were talking about how toyota and subaru are both taking credit over features of the car saying it was their idea/tech instead of the other party  that's good to hear since they must be very proud of the car
edit: was trying to find the article online but their blog articles are different

Both these cars stock: BRZ/FRS vs. 2013 Genesis
Who will win using assumptions

Who will win using assumptions | I think the BRZ/FRS will handle better, but the Genesis will have more balls.
I'm looking forward to seeing them compared against each other on the track and strip by mags.

They did a terrible job at sealing the seams, everything else is fine.

Fog lights as a standard feature
Trunk spoiler
Heated side mirrors
Heated front seats
Leather (instead of cloth)
A silver accent somewhere (guessing inside)
Auto climate control

Hey Guys,
Great thread about these cars. There will be an FRS on site at the autocross 2012 BC Champs which all participants will be allowed to drive!! Quote: |
After the completion of competition on Sunday all drivers will be given a chance to drive the new 2013 Scion FR-S, with the top times winning prizes. All competitors will get one shot at driving the course in an FR-S prepared to the same level, with the top raw times (with penalties) winning prizes from Scion.
