The 2015 Scion FR-S is a sports coupe that is designed to combine to fun driving dynamics and low pricing. The Scion FR-S for 2015 is a fully modern vehicle from front to back. There is inspiration that comes from a sports car design that is Japanese-based. The plastics have a carbon-look that are durable with a unique flow and simple lines. Monochromatic upholstery provides a backdrop for the gauge cluster.

This vehicle is low, sleek and curvy with short deck and long hood proportions. The styling offers the look that is expected for a standard sports car. A consumer that looks at the front of the vehicle will discover sharply angled vents and a grille opening that is wide. There are slightly flared fenders that bulge up at the hood line.

Performance
There is only one engine choice and two choices of transmission for the 2015 Scion FR-S. A consumer has the option of a manual six-speed transmission or a six-speed automatic that is paddle-shifted. Both of these transmissions will provide a driver the same amount of fun behind the wheel.

The power for the vehicle comes from a 2.0 liter 200-horsepower ...
... four-cylinder engine with 151 lb.-ft. of torque. Handling in the corners makes driving this vehicle fun whether you are on the open road or the windy back roads. However, performance upgrades from the factory include a cold-air intake, an impressive exhaust system, and even upgraded wheels. Larger brake kits are also available.

Quality
There are many well-built features that are available to feel and touch. One thing to keep in mind is limited cargo space. This is to be expected for a two-plus-two coupe. However, the trunk offers an adequate amount of space for baggage. The rear seats are able to fold down flat to allow more space horizontally.

Anyone who wants to spend a day at the track will be able to fit four wheels, four tires, a helmet, and a toolbox. One benefit for taller people is the head and legroom should be decent.

Features
Many upgrades and available accessories can help make the Scion FR-S unique for each driver. Consumers have a choice of 340-watt output, premium BeSpoke audio with an LCD screen that is 5.8 inches. One of the better aspects of this vehicle is being able to add upgrades and options individually. This means the consumer does not need to select a package with features that may not be wanted or needed.

Efficiency
The clear winner for efficiency is to choose the automatic transmission. However, it is not quite as fun as the manual transmission. The automatic transmission is able to achieve 34 miles per gallon on the highway and 25 miles per gallon in the city. If the manual transmission is selected, then the miles per gallon on the highway is 30 and miles per gallon in the city is 22.

The starting MSRP for the 2015 Scion FR-S is $25,670. However, option features can increase the price to nearly $31,200. Anyone looking for a fuel efficient and cost effective 2 door sports car, should consider the bold and sleek 2015 Scion FR-S.
