General Info: This like new HKS Supercharged 2013 Scion FR-S has only 482 ORIGINAL miles, $20,103 worth of aftermarket upgrades (NOT including thousands more in labor and dyno tuning costs) from all premium high end brands, a factory warranty, a 6-speed manual transmission, the optional factory ‘Whiteout’ paint upgrade with a custom vinyl wrap on it which can be removed, and black suede interior with red stitching accents on the seats/doors/steering wheel/shift boot. It still has the factory catalytic convertors and NO check engine lights, so yearly inspections and emissions tests are no problem!  Our company, SpeedForSale Motorsports, built this car for the Motovicity ‘Ticket To Ride’ contest and track day at Irwindale Speedway road course in California where it was driven by 2013 Formula D Champion Michael Essa and Tyler McQuarrie to test it’s before-and-after performance with all of the new upgrades listed below.  This FR-S beat a similarly modified 2013 Mustang GT V8 by almost 1 second on the road course and took only 102 feet to stop from 60 to 0 MPH!  You can find complete details from the blog MotoIQ.com about it’s build from a brand new stock FR-S to the reliably built street car and part-time track day animal it is now by viewing the links shown below.  Here is a quote from the track day comparison article regarding this FR-S compared to the modified Mustang GT V8:

“The Ticket To Ride FR-S was also greatly improved and being lighter on its feet, was still the preferred car by our drivers.”

It made a conservative 220 wheel horsepower (about 260 HP at the crank with a light 2800 pound weight) at 6psi of boost on our Mustang-brand dyno using 93 octane gasoline with the STOCK fuel injectors and catalytic convertors.  So, it has much more power to be had with a simple fuel injector upgrade, race exhaust header and mid-pipe, and removal of the HKS Supercharger’s intake restrictor which limits boost by 2-3psi.  It starts and drives just like a factory FR-S with no compromises.  The vinyl body wrap on it can be removed, and we still have all of the original Scion/FR-S badges to put back on the body.  It has ALL matching VIN tags in place, and has never been in any wrecks or had any damage/paint work.  The car has no leaks or smoke.  It's like a brand new factory built performance model that Scion never offered…but should have!  Special thanks to Motovicity Distribution for the opportunity!

Conclusion/contact info: My name is Jeremy Blackwell (extension 100), so please ask for me if you call.  This car is being sold as a PRIVATE PARTY sale, NOT as a car dealership.  However, we can refer you to a sports car financing company if you need financing.  We are a performance and tuning shop in the Atlanta area and have sold 100+ high end sports cars over the last 13 years...from Supra to Viper, GT-R to Lotus, we specialize in forced induction and performance cars.  We get wholesale pricing on performance parts and will sell the person who buys this car any parts they want at better prices than they will find anywhere, as well as provide them with technical assistance and advice on modifying and caring for the car. Also, we can install whatever parts you need at great labor rates. We offer dyno tuning, custom fabrication, and more, so the sky's the limit as far as what we can do with this car if you want more upgrades prior to delivery. You can view some references of people who have purchased sports cars from us in the past by clicking here on this link. I often speak with many people we have sold cars to, and they can tell you how much we help them with parts selection, troubleshooting, etc. If you need financing, you can try applying BY CLICKING HERE.  We will set up shipping of the car to anywhere in the world at your expense.

We are asking $29,900 for this top quality and nearly new FR-S.  If you want the OEM seats and/or wheels installed instead of the aftermarket seats/wheels, we can reduce the price a little bit.  But, we will NOT part out any of the other items on the car.  Feel free to call 770-777-4774 extension 100, or AOL instant message me at 'JeremyJBlackwell'.  More details and pictures can be found on our site at http://www.speedforsale.com/viewcar/?vid=533
We are in NO rush to sell the car, so please remember that we are not going to jump on a cheap offer. This Supercharged FR-S will be sitting in our shop, waiting.  Thanks, and let us know if we can assist you in any way!

Customize a Scion, make it out of paper [w/video]

Fri, 14 Dec 2012

Shin Tanaka is a "Japanese artist, graffiti writer, paper toy creator, designer" with Kennedy Center credentials - his Paper Shaper sneakers are especially popular. Scion has done a DIY collaboration with Tanaka that can get you every one of Scion's five models as a Paper Shaper.
There are two ways to get in on the auto origami, the first being to stop by the Scion booth if you happen by one of the coming season's auto shows. Since that's a lot of work and waiting to acquire a perforated sheet of paper, you can also download the Scion Paper Shaper app from iTunes. In the app you can customize your model, complete with custom paper sneakers on the custom paper base, then print it out and build it yourself.
If you have any more questions, well, the video and photos below will put it all together for you.

Despite slow sales, no new Scion models in near-term pipeline [w/poll]

Mon, 09 Sep 2013

According to a top Toyota executive, the Japanese automaker will not be introducing any fresh Scion models in the near future, Reuters reports. As of August, Scion sales for this year were down 1.6 percent from 2012 and accounted for only 0.3 percent of Toyota's overall US sales. And last month, Toyota Motor Sales USA Senior Vice President Bob Carter informed the 1,000 dealers who carry Scion that they can drop the brand without penalty.
However, never fear - Carter has assured that, while nothing new is coming for at least six months, the company is still very committed to the quirky Scion brand. Toyota launched Scion, which targets the youth market, in 2003, and sales peaked in 2006. The brand currently has five models, with the 2013 best-sellers being the FR-S sports coupe followed by the tC sedan and xB hatchback.
What do you think about Toyota's decision to hold off on introducing new or refreshed Scion models? Are they heading in the right direction, or does this spell doom for the funky Gen Y brand?

EVO "2012 Car of the Year: The Track Battles" is a sports car salmagundi

Sun, 25 Nov 2012

EVO has come out with another gotta-watch-it video, throwing its 2012 Car of the Year contestants around the UK's 1.5-mile Blyton Park track. It's actually a 15-minute teaser for the full-length DVD detailing the magazine's Car of the Year selection, but the tease is worth every penny free second.
Tiff Needell and sports car racer Richard Meaden handle the wheel duties, the two driving five pairs of sports cars: Lotus Exige S vs. Porsche Boxster S, Morgan Three-Wheeler vs. Toyota GT86, BMW M135i vs. Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series vs. Alpina B3 GT3, the marquee event pits the McLaren MP4-12C vs. the Pagani Huayra. After a head-to-head lap with commentary during drifts, Meaden takes each car out to set a representative lap time.
You'll find the verdicts, lots of tire smoke, and lines like "Anything you can do sideways I can do sideways" in the video below.
