    Keep them both. Keep the tC a practical sporty hatchback, keep the FRS a cheap, focused sports car. I think the audience for those two cars is separate enough to warrant both. Kind of like the focus st and the mustang.

    i hope not. the TC is atractively priced and the FRS is OVERpriced!

    Update the tC, but that aside. The tC is an awesome practical coupe with a roomy comfy interior, and sporty nature. The FR-S is an awesome sports car with a dreadful interior. If I were Scion I'd keep both, but if budgets were tight, I'd kill the FR-S, and let the BRZ do the rest.

    "a two door Corolla with a flash interior. That's not fair.

    I have driven a TC, and I like it. Also, it is 5 or 6 grand cheaper than the FRS.

    I really don't fit well into the Toyobarus. The seats are too tight around the shoulders. Wouldn't make for a nice road trip.

    The TC has its problems also. The inside is way too black for me, and the instrumentation and center stack are probably a decade old.

    The FRS is a stretch for people buying a first car, where the TC is actually a compelling option at its price.

    I'd keep both, their price point is different enough that one should not eat the profits of the other.

    In a purely business mindset, so long as the TC remains profitable, keep it.

    From an enthusiast stand point, it needed to die yesterday.
