Don't look now, but the '80s are back. Thankfully, there's a bright spot among the nauseating resurrection of neon jeans, blue eyeshadow and shoulder pads: the return of the affordable japanese sports car. And there's no better example than the 2013 scion fr-s. The front-engine, rear-wheel-drive coupe is all new, built in collaboration with subaru, which, along with toyota engineers, co-developed a flat 4-cylinder, horizontally opposed, direct-injection boxer engine. The two companies worked together to develop both the chassis and the small, lightweight engine with a shape and size that allows it to sit very low in the engine compartment, equating to a lower center of gravity (which scion loves to point out is lower than the porsche cayman) for better balance and handling. Paired with a choice of a 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission, the 2013 scion fr-s makes a respectable 200 horsepower and 151 pound-feet of torque. Performance-oriented features abound on the 2013 fr-s, including a front macpherson front suspension, a double-wishbone rear suspension, and ventilated disc brakes all around. In other words, it's ready to head for the nearest autocross or track day event. Like other scions, the fr-s is mono-spec with a plethora of optional a la carte accessories, including a cold air intake, big brake kit, sway bars, and body kit. Epa fuel economy estimates for the 2012 fr-s are 22/30 mpg city/highway this weekend only!
