The New Toyota/Subaru car is being released in Canada as the Scion FR-S.
Looks super nice too!

So my buddy got his brand new Scion FR-S. After everything he was up to $31k.
I went to the dealer where he got his car and salesman was more then welcome for me to test drive exactly the same one. Of course I wasn't gonna pass that up and test drove it hard. Let me tell ya......I was really disappointed lol. 200bhp N/A engine just wasn't fun enough for me. And I turned Off Traction control and turned On Sport ModeIt handles pretty good but I would seriosly wait till F/I version comes out in the future.

P.S. It's really nice and comfy inside. But for $31k I would find something much quicker.
