2012 Scion FR-S GT by Daniel Song

As a first time contestant to the Scion Tuner Challenge, Daniel Song felt that the FR-S was the perfect car to jump on. Almost immediately after accepting his participation in the Challenge, his mind went to work. He felt strongly that the Scion FR-S was built and designed as a performance vehicle to be enjoyed by both professional and amateur driving enthusiasts. It was then that the no-nonsense, function built, raw, aggressive, and sinister race bred theme was born. The project was named the โ€œFR-S GTโ€ and was the first clue to its inner racecar spirit being unleashed. It was important to Daniel that not only the car be โ€˜show readyโ€™ for itโ€™s debut at SEMA 2012, but that if the FR-S GT had to, it could put on a real show on the track where it would truly come alive
