Scion Owners Site doesn't recognize my VIN

I guess this is what happens when you're on the bleeding edge. I just tried to sign up at the Scion Owner's site (off the Scion Life logo on SCION.COM) and it doesn't recognize my VIN!

OK, somebody tell me I really do have my car and not just dreaming again!

Maybe you're actually driving a Subaru?!?!


Quick! Look for a push start!

Yea, the guys that rode with me from the airport at Long Beach will probably chime in on me and push start buttons! Let's just say, if it had a push start, I'd probably still be sitting in the dealer's lot trying to leave.

If it makes you feel better, I tried a Scion VIN on the Subaru site and it didn't work there either (but BRZ VINs do work). I guess that just leaves Toyota

When putting the VIN for an FR-S into the Canadian Toyota dealer site the car came up (only Toyota/Scion/Lexus models will), but it said the brand was Subaru. Made me laugh.
