Scion FR-S Earned Recognition into 10Best Cars of 2013's List

TORRANCE, Calif., (Dec. 5, 2012) – The Scion FR-S earned recognition today from Car and Driver, the world's largest automotive publication, as part of its “10Best” cars of 2013. The magazine highlights the best cars for under $80,000 available on showroom floors in January 2013. Scion introduced the FR-S earlier this year to positive industry reviews and consumer excitement. The FR-S shares its spot on the list with the Subaru BRZ.

  “Making the Car and Driver 10Best list in its first year is another example of the energy and enthusiasm building around the FR-S and the fun driving experience it offers,” said Scion Vice President Doug Murtha. “The success of the FR-S reflects the Scion mission to give drivers vehicles that fit their lifestyles and express their individuality.”

  The FR-S features a lightweight design and 2.0-liter flat boxer engine capable of producing an impressive 200 horsepower and 151 pound-feet of torque. Affordability and performance have made the FR-S a fast favorite since it arrived in U.S. showrooms in June.

First Ever Scion FR-S Cup

The first ever Scion FR-S Cup, presented in collaboration with the team at HPI Racing, took place at Toyota Headquarters on the morning of November 17th. Although the weather was cold and, at times, uncooperative, there was still a great turn out with a ton of racers, vendors, media and spectators all in attendance.

The races took center stage for the day, with approximately 100 competitors pitting their Scion FR-S RC cars against one another on the track. The field was divided into three classes for skill levels ranging from beginner to expert, with the winners from each class facing off for the title of the Scion FR-S Cup Champion. Among the field were a few familiar names from the Scion Racing teams, including Dynamic Autosports Scion tC driver Michele Abbate, and Need for Speed Drift tC team manager Stephan Papadakis.

Between races, attendees also had the chance to check out the Scion vehicle demo area, and take an up close look at products from vendors like FIVE:AD, OEM Audio +, Beat-Sonic, and a whole lot more. Catering for lunch came courtesy of the Seoul Sausage Company, while the B Sweet Dessert Truck stopped by to provide the group with pastries for desserts.

Thanks to everyone who showed up, from the racers and pit crews, to the vendors and spectators, without whom the HPI Racing Scion FR-S Cup wouldn’t have been possible!
