How reliable is a Scion FR-S?

I want to get a sports car and the Scion FR-S has been my favorite one so far. Is it actually a good car? Will it last for a long time without breaking down?

Liz Jenson · Updated on Mar 20, 2023

Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.

Unfortunately, the

Toyota Scion FR-S

has a pretty low reliability rating, even when compared with other cars in its class. While it’s not a bad car by any means, the Scion FR-S probably isn’t the best choice for you if you value reliability and dependability in your vehicle.

Some of the most reliable sports cars on the market right now include:

The Honda S2000

Newer Ford Mustangs

The Toyota Supra Mk3

Regardless of the car you choose, however, you’ll still need to secure a good

policy. Check out the

app, where you can see a list of policy quotes that work for you in minutes. The average user saves $887 per year.
