On a lighter note, we have some fresh pages for you all. Wait until you feast your eyes on this amazing 2013 Scion FR-S, it鈥檚 certainly a 鈥淟egend in the Making.鈥 We also have a 鈥淩ally Inspired,鈥 2012 Hyundai Veloster, a nice 1991 throwback, Toyota MR-2, a 2001 Lexus IS300 among others.

Read on for the full interview.
