Scion FR-S
Better known as "FR-S," is a rear wheel drive sports car jointly developed by Subaru and Toyota which was released and sold to the public in mid-2012. The origin of the car came about in 2009 from the Toyota FT86 concept. The Scion FR-S is the production model of the said concept. The Scion FR-S is the exclusive North American variant of the Toyota 86 or GT86 (sold internationally) On the other hand, Subaru's own variant is called the Subaru BRZ. The main difference between the two is the design of the front lower fascia and headlights, apart from minor technical tweaks and interior setups.
Scion's acronym for the FR-S is "Front-engine, Rear wheel drive, Sport" but has also been called "Fricken Really Sweet" and most likely informally called "Fricken Really Slow" due to the car's lack in horsepower and torque compared to other cars in its price range.
However, what most average joes do not understand is that the car is intended to be as balanced as possible, which is evident by having a lower center of gravity then a Ferrari 458 Italia, and also being very light in terms of weight. As a result, the superb handling overshadows the lack of power, which is why real driving enthusiasts (and some average joes) would choose to buy this car.
The hype of the car is a result of the long absence of a lightweight affordable sports car, apart from the Mazda Miata/MX-5.

scion tc
A car designed by Scion to take over the Celica's demise in 2005. This car is very tuner friendly, with the plethora of Toyota Racing Development (TRD) parts and accessories. This car has its aim on the Honda Civic and Acura RSX. It is capable of reaching nearly 500hp with affordable modification on a reliable Camry engine, that would cost thousands amoung other vehicles. It has a one of a kind, eye-appealing shape, unlike the first Scion breeds the xA and xB. It is called the tC to avoid confusion with Volvo who has an XC model line. Best bang for your buck prices starting in the mid teens and up to 20 with many factory modifications. Its just starting out and already roxoring my boxors... a very smart move by Toyota.
"hey dude... nice civic heh-heh-... ya man i got like the biggest wing evar... oh shit.. check out that tC... oh yeah its supercharged unlike my civic and i will die."

Scion TC
A good car that has great features. The car has more room then some other sport coupes such as the civic si which is small for passengers to fit in the back sits. The scion tc is a smart move by toyota because it has alot of features for the car like trd parts etc.. The scion tc is one of the best sport coupes up to date because the pricing is practical, the engine is realible and economic, and most importantly the car can be turn in anything you want it to be. With the right parts the scion tc can be as fast as you want it,but the car needs to be manual. Overall the scion tc is the future of toyota and one of the best cars you can buy that does not hurt your wallet and most importantly get you to point A to point B in style.
