Reviewed: 2013 Scion FR-S

In May of last year we went out to Las Vegas for a first drive of the Scion FR-S. Now that we’ve had a week with it, do we feel the same way about it. Is it the “old school” sports car so many of us have been pining for, or is it just, well, meh! Find out as we dive in and take a longer look at the Scion FR-S.

 

As a side note, we were filming some driving scenes before we shot the in car and stand up.  We had the camera mount fail on us, so our Sony POV cam broke and the mount had some issues as well, as you will notice in the video.  We are sorry for that, and we have since replaced the equipment.

 

 

First Drive: 2013 Scion FR-S – Friggin Really SWEET!!

It’s one of the most highly anticipated cars of the last 24 months, a car that goes back to the roots of what a sports car should be, light, agile and fun to drive!

Scion brought us out to Spring Valley Motorsport Ranch to have a go with the 2013 Scion FR-S, know as the FT-86 elsewhere in the world, to see if it lives up to the hype.  The question is, does it deliver?  Have a look at the video to find out.
