There's something special about driving a sports car on the racetrack, a feeling that this is what this car was made to do, a chance to really put the pedal to the metal and let that engine roar. And exciting as it is to drive a sports car on the racetrack, too often they're not very friendly to the average driver. Unless you're a professional (or someone who gets to go to the track on the regular), most of us can't safely drive one like we're in the last lap of the Indy 500. 

That's where the Scion FR-S comes in.

As Conner Golden writes in his article for Automobile, "The FR-S presents the right balance of fun and protection for a track day that will make your heart flutter instead of stop." With a 2.0-liter flat-four engine that delivers 200 hp and 151 lb-ft of torque, the FR-S has just the right amount of get-up-and-go (as opposed to pulling your cheeks back like you've just hit the switch on NASA's astronaut training machine). 

But it's great on the highway, too. A fuel efficiency of 36 hwy mpg means you've got plenty of cruising miles available to you between stops at the gas station, and the way the FR-S is built, you'll feel in control of every mile. Not only is the snug cabin perfectly proportioned to make you feel in "the center of the action," as Golden puts it, but the sports car's brakes are both strong and effective, the pedal firm beneath your foot.

Now, you'll need to test-drive the Scion FR-S to see if it's right for you, but the team at 3Birds Template is fairly confident it is. Call, contact us online, or stop by the dealership today to give it a spin, or to learn more about any of the other great models we have on our lot.
