Bye Bye Scion.

just saw this...http://www.yahoo.com/autos/toyota-pulls-plug-scion-small-150305639.html

 

Meh, not too bad. The only car I really liked was the FR-S and that'll be rebranded as a Toyota so not a huge loss.

 

same here, all the other scions are fugly!

 

All i thought of when I heard the name " scion" was lesbian toaster anyways.

 

What are all the high school girls going to drive now???

 

VW's

 

My thought also or the subaru brz. The scion frs has subaru stampings on its body panels. Really weird.

 

Sooooo does that mean the FRS will actually be named the 86? I'm down with that.

 

I have a tC as my DD.

 

All they really were was a rebrand of saturns. I won't miss that toaster on wheels.

 

One of my best buds has a Scion... Every time I see his car I have to double take and say "Oh yeah, I know that dude".

 

It's a fun car to drive actually.

 

My buddy likes it. Does look like lesbian toaster though.

 

The xB does. The tC is quite different.

 

He must have an xB. Because lesbian toaster is the most accurate description that I've heard

 

agreed.

 

Second gen - it's a 2013

Think I'll get an frs next.

 

where Scion failed is the interiors and fit and finish. It was a budget build and i understand that. To keep end costs lower, less interior features/comforts. But hot damn, i owned an 08 XB and it was literally sheet metal and then paneling. In a rain storm it sounded like i was being peppered by bullets. Zero sound deadening anywhere and extremely uncomfortable seats. If Scion had included more comforts and actually kept it to a toyota standard of interior, it would have been a better success. My 03 4runner is far and above the interior and overall creature comfort quality than my 08 xB. Which is sad.

 

Can't argue that. The tC interior is pretty Spartan.
