We all like some added features at a lower cost when buying a car, and these usually come in the form of so-called special editions. Scion is certainly no stranger to this type of marketing promotion to increase sales, and at the upcoming2014 Detroit motor show, it will debut the limited run Monogram Series for the tC and FR-S coupes.
Both models are set to go on sale across the States in February, with the FR-S production limited to 2,000 units and the tC to 2,500 cars.
The rear-wheel drive FR-S Monogram Series is priced at $27,400 for the 6sp manual model and $28,500 for the 6sp automatic, with Scion claiming savings of more than $1,900, thanks to additional standard features such as leather seats with Alcantara inserts and a higher-end audio with integrated navigation system.
Those who choose the front-wheel drive tC Coupe will pay $21,400 and $22,400 for the manual and automatic versions respectively, which Scion says represents a value package of over $1,500. Among other added features on the Monogram Series tC are the leather seats, rear spoiler and navigation.
