Default Scion Scooby Yank

Well I've been fortunate to pick up a 2013 Scion FR-S, I went for the AT (troll bait) and am particularly happy with my decision. The color is a bit out of my comfort range.
It's amazing how much Subaru is represented in all the body panel stampings and such, I landed up with the Scion as the Subaru dealer here is a total ****** and was trying to over charge me for a BRZ Limited. I figure the money I saved I can build my own Scion STi FR-S. Here is a couple of pictures, some of the car alone and with mates cars also.

Yeah , I think Toyota did that to keep Scion from going under, plus my car was only 15690.00 GBP where the Toyota is closer to 26,000.00 GBP over there. My car is closer to the Toyota 86G in Japan just a bit more amenities than the stripped out 86RC. I was thinking of rebadging Emma, and figured I'd stay close to my friends across the pond so they might be able to help aquire the parts I need.
