The 2013 FR-S beat out its competition to earn the Best Sports Car for the Money from U.S. News & World Report. The annual award recognises value, quality and critical acclaim across 21 vehicle categories.

To evaluate the FR-S, U.S. News & World Report judges
looked at the sports coupe's safety record, reliability and opinion from industry experts. Additionally, the expected five-year total cost of ownership and average vehicle price at the time of publication contributed to overall scores. The FR-S costs $25,255 MSRP with a six-speed manual transmission or $26,355 MSRP with a six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters and Dynamic Rev Management technology.

"The Best Sports Car for the Money award is a testament to the incredibly fun and accessible sports car experience offered by the Scion FR-S," said Scion Vice-President Doug Murtha. "We are proud the FR-S continues to impress industry enthusiasts and drivers, while also representing the passion behind the Scion brand."
