General Info: This like new HKS Supercharged 2013 Scion FR-S has only 482 ORIGINAL miles, $20,103 worth of aftermarket upgrades (NOT including thousands more in labor and dyno tuning costs) from all premium high end brands, a factory warranty, a 6-speed manual transmission, the optional factory ‘Whiteout’ paint upgrade with a custom vinyl wrap on it which can be removed, and black suede interior with red stitching accents on the seats/doors/steering wheel/shift boot. It still has the factory catalytic convertors and NO check engine lights, so yearly inspections and emissions tests are no problem! Our company, SpeedForSale Motorsports, built this car for the Motovicity ‘Ticket To Ride’ contest and track day at Irwindale Speedway road course in California where it was driven by 2013 Formula D Champion Michael Essa and Tyler McQuarrie to test it’s before-and-after performance with all of the new upgrades listed below. This FR-S beat a similarly modified 2013 Mustang GT V8 by almost 1 second on the road course and took only 102 feet to stop from 60 to 0 MPH! You can find complete details from the blog MotoIQ.com about it’s build from a brand new stock FR-S to the reliably built street car and part-time track day animal it is now by viewing the links shown below. Here is a quote from the track day comparison article regarding this FR-S compared to the modified Mustang GT V8: “The Ticket To Ride FR-S was also greatly improved and being lighter on its feet, was still the preferred car by our drivers.” It made a conservative 220 wheel horsepower (about 260 HP at
the crank with a light 2800 pound weight) at 6psi of boost on our Mustang-brand
dyno using 93 octane gasoline with the STOCK fuel injectors and catalytic
convertors. So, it has much more power
to be had with a simple fuel injector upgrade, race exhaust header and
mid-pipe, and removal of the HKS Supercharger’s intake restrictor which limits
boost by 2-3psi. It starts and drives
just like a factory FR-S with no compromises.
The vinyl body wrap on it can be removed, and we still have all of the
original Scion/FR-S badges to put back on the body. It has ALL matching VIN tags in place, and
has never been in any wrecks or had any damage/paint work. The car has no leaks or smoke. It's like a brand new
factory built performance model that Scion never offered…but should have! Special thanks to Motovicity Distribution for
the opportunity!

Cheap, honest transportation | 2017 Toyota Yaris iA
Fri, Mar 24 2017In The Love Bug, the main character (aside from Herbie) is a down-on-his-luck racing driver named Jim Douglas. Early on, he steps into an exotic car show room, and when the dealer asks him kind of car he's looking for, Douglas replies, "What do you have in the way of cheap, honest transportation?" The dealer quickly snatches his fancy liquor back from Douglas and soon after Herbie shows up from the back of the showroom. But if this happened today, you could easily replace the classic Beetle with a 2017 Toyota Yaris iA. The poor thing isn't nearly as endearing to look at as a classic Bug, as a result of the rather unattractive nose, and it's now using a second pseudonym (first Scion iA, then Toyota Yaris iA) to hide its Mazda heritage. However, everything else about it nails the description of cheap, honest transportation. And for that reason, it's a lovely little car. Let's start with honesty, and it begins from the minute you start equipping the car – the iA is a "what you see is what you get" proposition. You see, the iA moniker isn't the only holdover from the Scion era. The Toyota Yaris iA retains its "monospec" configuration, which means it comes with only one option: the transmission. Customers can choose from either a 6-speed manual like our test car, or a 6-speed automatic which costs $1,100. Everything else is standard, and "everything" includes some choice features. You get alloy wheels, air conditioning, cruise control, USB and Bluetooth integration, a rear-view camera, tilt and telescoping steering wheel with audio controls, and keyless entry with push-button start. Technically there are a number of dealer-installed accessories too, including your typical fare of mudguards, rear spoiler, cargo organizers, and such. However, none of them are really necessary, with one exception. For some odd reason, the Yaris iA does not come with a center armrest. It's a $195 accessory, and frankly it should be a standard feature because it's so useful. If you hadn't guessed, ours wasn't equipped with it. Everywhere else the iA is a thoroughly pleasant car, if not as sporty as the old Mazda2. The little 1.5-liter four-cylinder under the hood isn't particularly potent with 106 horsepower and 103 lb-ft of torque. But with a Miata-like 2,385-pound curb weight and our car's manual transmission, it manages to feel fairly sprightly, and never has any trouble dicing it up with traffic. That transmission is pretty decent, too.
Scion FR-S SEMA showcars salute sun, style
Wed, 05 Nov 2014A brand like Scion is sort of a natural fit here at SEMA, what with the customizable schtick that it's trumpeted since being born in 2002. We've already seen some weird takes on the xB, but SEMA's magic wand has once done interesting things to the FR-S, seen here in a quartet of concepts.
Something that kind of piques our interest is this roofless, let-the-sun-in FR-S, but not in a way that we've seen before. Tuner Jeremy Lookofsky of Cartel Customs put the two-tone, topless FR-S together, and his creation also features an all-metal wide body with an integrated rear spoiler. It's decked out in a unique Azzuro California Blue (looks pretty beachy to us) and includes upgrades like a louvered rear window, 19-inch wheels, a center-mounted exhaust, big ol' turbo kit, KW coilover suspension, upgraded brakes, and a super-powerful audio system.
Also featured in FR-S land is the 10th annual Scion Tuner Challenge, in which three tuners received $15,000 to modify the coupe, taking cues from the Release Series 1.0 that debuted earlier this year. The three cars were done up by Super Street magazine, GT Channel, and Speedhunters. A panel of judges will look at the customs and a $10,000 grand prize will be given to the winners.
2013 Scion FR-S
Thu, 10 Jan 2013The New Poster Child For Cheap Thrills
Let me tell you about a man named Larry. Larry works for a company called STI Fleet Services, one of a few companies that are responsible for the cleaning, prepping, maintaining, scheduling, delivering and picking up of the cars we test on a weekly basis, not to mention a whole slew of other duties. STI and its competitors are the silent heroes of this whole automotive journalism biz. Larry is one of the guys responsible for a lot of the grunt work - he's been delivering cars to me for nearly seven years now, and because of that, we've developed a bit of a rapport. Now that I think about it, my history with Larry goes back farther than several of my friendships, as well as every romantic relationship I've ever had... combined.
With that much history behind us, Larry knows my taste in cars pretty well. And even though he doesn't voice his own opinions about what's being delivered to me, Larry silently knows when he's about to hand me keys to something truly special. When Larry arrived at my door with a bright red 2013 Scion FR-S, I tried to play it cool. But Larry knows me better than that.
