MotorTrend StaffWriter
By now everyone should know the Scion FR-S and the Subaru BRZ are both made in the same factory. Differences between the two cars are relatively minor with the front end and badges being the biggest thing to distinguish the two. Today Subaru announced the pricing for the BRZ so let’s take a look at what you’ll get compared to the Scion FR-S.
Scion FR-S 6-speed: $24,200 MSRP
Subaru BRZ 6-speed: $25,496 MSRP
So what’s really the difference between the two? The FR-S is going to be for the guys who don’t need added bells and whistles; the BRZ will be for the guys who like the added luxuries of a modern car. For $1,295 the BRZ will include Nav and HIDs and if you wanted to spend $3,295 you’ll add on Alcantara heated seats, fog lights, keyless entry and a rear spoiler bringing up the total to $27,495 for the Limited Edition model.
