Toyota to scrap Scion brand, but FR-S will become a Toyota! - Page 34 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

dnieves · 02-05-2016, 05:08 AM

Takeaways:

So for MY17 you'll still need to change FR-S to 86 but you won't have to waste money on Toyota badges as they'll already be there.
Q
What will happen to Scion products?

A

The following vehicles will be re-badged as Toyotas and will retain their names:

FR-S
iM
iA

MY17 should be the last of the tyrannical monospec and questionable Pure Price.
Q
Will Toyota dealers still be using Pure Price and Pure Process Plus?

A
For MY17, the iA, iM and FR-S will remain monospec and a single price. After that, we will evaluate how pricing for those vehicles as Toyotas will be carried out. Regarding Pure Process Plus, it’s specific to Scion so it won’t be available at Toyota dealers.

I don't like the Toyota logo. It still looks like a chrome uterus to me.

I was about to swap my badges the other day but I didn't at the last second and I guess I saved money. I still want to buy blacked out scion emblems though cause I hate the plastids on mine right now.

I went old school and used the spelled out name. Found it at a junk yard. I have the T on the front only

More like exasperated Flanders than angry. Ya it may read angry but I am not mad just frustrated.

So what will this do to the value of our current Scions?
