The 2015 Scion FR-S gets improved tuning and an update to its looks to go along with a new price when it hits dealer showrooms this summer.
The improvements to handling and stability come from a more rigid front suspension and retuned rear shock absorbers. This improved damping results in less body roll than in the past and a better driving experience for those behind the wheel.
The styling changes don’t just alter its looks, but improve its aerodynamics with small details like a shark fin antenna instead of the old pole antenna. They’ve also increased the size of the exhaust tips and made them more flush with the rear bumper for a cleaner overall look. Inside, the 2015 Scion FR-S sees some changes too, with auto on/off headlights, an updated interior panel with a carbon-fiber look, and a new key design.
Pricing on the 2015 Scion FR-S will start at $24,900 with a six-speed manual transmission or $26,000 with a six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters. Expect to see this car at your local dealer sometime early next month.

She considers things a bit more carefully now, but still has a weakness for fast, beautiful cars. Nicole also writes for NerdApproved and GeekMom.
