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!

Scion xB gets one more special edition
Tue, Sep 29 2015The Scion xB, which is apparently still a thing, has added a final special edition to its long-running list, with the new 686 Parklan Edition. It's limited to, you guessed it, 686 units. As is so often the case for these special editions, there's a unique paint color, decals, wheels, and nifty little trim bits. That's good news for the Brown Car Appreciation Society, as Scion has opted for a handsome Cocoa Bean Metallic paint that almost feels wasted on this aging box. The gloss black wheels, mirror caps, and tailgate handle all feature bright red accents, but it's the cabin where we really see big changes. The 686 has dictated an outdoorsy interior theme, with plenty of camo fabric and quilted finishing on the seat uppers. There are a couple of zippable pockets in the front seats, including a rather hefty storage area in the seatbacks, while the floor and cargo area are protected by 686-branded rubber floormats. The xB 686 Parklan Edition, which can only be had with an automatic transmission, will be priced at $20,480, with sales slated to begin today. Read on for the official press release from Scion. Scion Checks the Box With Final xB Special Edition Model September 28, 2015 TORRANCE, Calif. (Sept. 28, 2015) – As Scion's iconic box, the xB, ends its run, Scion is taking the road less traveled to a place where the mountains meet the streets. Scion has partnered with 686, the snowboard technical apparel company, to create the xB 686 Parklan Edition. Starting today, a total of 686 xB special edition models are available for buyers seeking a unique combination of fashion and function. It will be priced at $19,685, excluding a delivery, processing and handling fee of $795. The 2015 xB 686 Parklan Edition incorporates seats with the quilted patterning and modern cubist camo style reflecting 686's design influence. Gloss black 16-inch alloy wheels featuring the 686 stamped logo tie in with the black-out badges, side mirrors, rear license plate garnish and door handles. On the outside, the Cocoa Bean Metallic paint is accented with red lines in the front, rear and on the side mirrors to capture 686's brand. For added functionality on the slopes, there is an incognito driver's side zippered storage pocket and zippered seat back pockets. Each xB 686 Parklan Edition also comes with all-weather floor and cargo mats. Additionally, a custom INNO Cargo Box and Roof Rack system is available.
Toyota GT86 engineers explored shooting brake and sedan variants, are they still in the cards?
Wed, 13 Mar 2013According to the Toyota UK blog, engineers for the automaker were so excited developing the GT86 coupe that they investigated producing a whole family of models based on the rear-wheel drive sports car. And at least one engineer - product chief Tetsuya Tada - still hopes it can happen, even if not everyone at Toyota is onboard. Tada: "Actually we tried to do this secretly but the executives found us out. They said: 'What are you doing? Will you please focus on the coupe.'"
Those mooted variants included both a four-door sedan and a shooting brake. Why? Aside from the pure excellence of a lightweight, brilliantly handling hatchback, Toyota was keenly aware of the fact that it may need to spread the cost of development out across several models. Tada says that's part of the reason why it was so easy to create the convertible. The company knew from the outset that a softtop version was in the cards, and built the machine's structure to accommodate having the roof sliced off.
Tada also made mention of the already-announced collaboration between Toyota and BMW. The engineer said that the GT86 was particularly helpful because it demonstrated just how successful a product conceived and designed by two different companies can be. While he didn't say exactly what Toyota and BMW are up to, it's clear the two are looking into a number of possibilities. It's an interesting read with a lot of
Scion gets touchscreen audio across the board
Fri, 16 Aug 2013On a constant mission to court younger buyers, Scion will be adding some new in-car technology to its lineup for the 2014 model year. All Scion products will now come standard with a 6.1-inch touchscreen audio head unit that we first saw on the 2014 tC (as shown above).
In standard form, this head unit will feature HD Radio, Bluetooth and auxiliary and USB ports. Opting for the $1,198 BeSpoke Premium system brings navigation, integrated social media apps, geo-located POIs and Aha internet radio.
Other changes announced along with the new touchscreen include new two-tone paint schemes for the 2014 xD, a limited-production iQ and pricing for the 2014 lineup. As shown in the gallery, customers can now choose from silver-on-blue and black-over-grey paint combos. The iQ Monogram gets a burgundy-over-silver paint job with a limited run of just 150 units, and it goes on sale in October starting at $16,520 (not including $755 for destination).
