Repairable, Salvage and Damaged Toyota Scion Fr-s for Sale
Showing results 1 - 24 of 44
44 Scion FR-S coupes for sale across 41+ Copart locations – model years 2013–2016, avg. mileage 116,000 mi. 16% clean title, 84% salvage; Front End is the top damage (70%). Bids start at $200, and price here tracks the transmission and how hard the car was driven far more than any single average would suggest.
Scion was Toyota's now-defunct youth brand, and the FR-S was its halo car for 2013 through 2016 before Toyota folded the lineup and renamed the same car the 86 the following year. Too few examples pass through this pool to support a meaningful average, and among the ones that do, history matters more than mileage – a clean manual car commands real money, while an example with a cage and years of track lapping needs pricing as a project, not a bargain. Front End is the top damage type here at 70%. What does sell mostly stays in the US, picked up locally or shipped in-country.
Under the hood is the FA20, a 2.0-liter flat-four Toyota developed jointly with Subaru specifically for this platform. Toyota later revised the design as the FA24 for the following-generation GR86, largely to address rod-bearing wear that showed up on FA20 engines subjected to short, cold-start-heavy driving – worth asking about on any FR-S with an unclear service history, since a spun bearing takes the whole engine with it. It's rear-wheel drive on a lightweight unibody, so a side or rear hit can rack the chassis in ways an alignment shop needs to catch before anyone calls the car straight. Manual-transmission cars hold a real premium over the automatic in this segment, wrecked or not, and that gap alone can decide whether a project pencils out. A shell too far gone for the road still has value as a drivetrain donor, since the running gear interchanges with the Subaru BRZ built on the same platform.
Buying is quick: register free – no dealer license – set a maximum bid and the system bids up to that cap, or take a lot at its Buy Now price. Win it, pay the invoice plus fees, then pick up, ship or export.
Note: ACV and damage data come from the original auction listing. Always check the condition and title yourself before you bid.
FAQ
What condition are these FR-S coupes in?
About 44 lots, 84% on a salvage title and the rest clean or rebuilt. Front End leads at 70%, and given how few trade here, check each FR-S coupe listing individually rather than expecting a typical one.
Is a salvage FR-S worth buying?
Often yes on a clean manual car without visible track abuse, since the FA20 engine and rear-drive chassis are well regarded. There's no reliable sold-price average here – too few trade – so weigh transmission and modification history over any single figure. Compare against a clean-title FR-S before you bid.
What should I check before bidding?
Look for a roll cage, coilovers or lap-timer stickers that hint at hard track use, and ask about oil-change intervals given the FA20's known rod-bearing weakness. Check the chassis and alignment points after any side or rear hit. Cross-check the title brand against the photos.
Can I insure and register a salvage FR-S?
Not while it's salvage-titled. You register and insure it only after it's rebuilt and passes a state inspection; once re-titled rebuilt, most insurers will write it, just not the company that totaled it. Check with your insurer before you bid.
How does the auction work?
Register free, no dealer license. Set a maximum bid and the system bids for you up to that cap, or take a lot at its Buy Now price. Win it, pay the invoice plus fees, then pick up, ship or export.
How do I check an FR-S's history before bidding?
Every lot lists the VIN, damage type and title brand. Run the VIN through a vehicle-history report for prior accidents and title events, and look hard at the photos for signs of track use.
What are good alternatives to the FR-S?
Since the FR-S and the Subaru BRZ share their platform and engine, cross-shop that one directly. If you want something more common at auction, the Mazda MX-5 covers similar rear-drive ground, or step forward to the later Toyota 86, which replaced the FR-S nameplate in 2017.
