Unless this is rebadged, idt they were sold under the Toyota brand in the US until I think 2016. I could be wrong, of course, but this looks newer.
Regardless, outside of whatever mods they’ve got, mine is as old as they get and has no problems at all (other than the damn door checks lol), so age alone isn’t a reason to throw money at it.
I am so thankful for the FR-S. I have a 2015 Scion tC, and when the FR-S dropped Scion updated the design language of the gen 2 tC (2011-2013) to the gen 2.5 (2014-2016) to copy some of the language of the FR-S, and it looks SO MUCH BETTER.
(Such a fun little car. Not as much fun as the FR-S, I’m sure, but a 2-door Corolla with a Camry/RAV-4 engine and a six-speed manual transmission is a blast, let me tell you.)
I own a 2013 FR-S.

Didn’t they also have the thinner Prius wheels? I seem to recall that this made then much easier to drift/break the back loose.
Honestly I don’t know. But I do know it was pretty understeer prone when stock, so I’m not sure.
