2013 Scion FR-S in Jay Leno's Big Dog Garage with Scion's Jack Holllis

Jay Leno has finally gotten around to getting his hands on the Scion FR-S. The latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage is all about the new low-buck sports car from Toyota. Jack Hollis, the vice president and General Manager of Scion, stops in to give the TV personality a full walk-around of the 200-horsepower coupe. While Leno's collection includes every shade of high-horsepower machinery, the comedian is also a fan of cheap driving fun for the masses. Hollis hits the high points of the model's development, including the tie-in with Subaru and not-so-subtle nods to the ghosts of Toyota performance past.

As usual, the cameras follow Leno as he takes the FR-S onto the streets around Los Angeles for a quick sprint. He also submits the boxer four to his typical "immaturity test" with mixed results. We approve all the same. You can check out the full video by scrolling below or head over to JayLenosGarage.com to check out a few photos of the FR-S hanging out in the Big Dog Garage.

Q: So Jack Hollis, the vice president and General Manager of Scion DID NOT KNOW WHAT A BOXER ENGINE IS ?

A: No he absolutely did not know....Leno had to explain it to him (slowly) and use hand gestures to cement the explanation. WOW ! Maybe Hollis deserves a big fat raise for his supreme level of product knowledge.
