Scion FR-S "minty FReSh" by Chris Basselgia


The second entry in Scion?s FR-S tuner competition, which competitors have $15K to build the most bad-ass FR-S for a change to win $10K, is Chris Basselgia’s entrant ?minty FReSh? ? you see what he did there? This custom FR-S creation, much like the ?Carbon Stealth? before it, takes a much calmer approach to tuning.

Much like his competitor, John Toca, Basselgia left off all of the gaudy bodywork and focused mainly on a clean design. That?s not to say that his ?minty FReSh? concept is free of any additions to the body, he was simply more careful and calculated with where he placed them. This ultimately brings the focus to the performance interior styling and sound system in the ?minty Fresh? FR-S.

So, is Chris? ?minty Fresh? Scion FR-S up to the challenge of beating out its other two competitors and taking home the top prize of $10K?
