Follow on Google News | Scion FR-S Named Seventh Best Summer Car Available Under $30,000By: Brown's Scion of Glen Burnie Available for an MSRP of $25,800 for the six-speed automatic transmission model, the 2013 FR-S earned a spot on the list largely because of its precise and sporty handling and sophisticated interior, which now includes available upholstered leather seats. In addition, the editors at AutoGuide.com also pointed to how popular the sports car is among young drivers as one of its top attributes. Beginning with the 2014 model, all new FR-S models will come standard with a touchscreen audio system that includes Bluetooth and audio connectivity, among other capabilities. "Young drivers in Maryland rarely go anywhere these days without their smartphones or iPods, so being able to stay connected while driving is yet another perk offered by the FR-S," said John Stefero, general manager of Brown's Scion of Glen Burnie, a Maryland Scion dealership. "When you add enhanced convenience to sporty performance and affordability, it's no surprise that young drivers love this sports car." Judging by recent Scion sales figures, AutoGuide.com's designation for the 2013 FR-S appears to be on the mark. Through July, Scion sold more new FR-S models, at 11,635 units, than any other vehicle in its lineup. A total of 1,614 FR-S units flew off lots nationwide in July, the highest of any Scion model after the tC.
