Well Scion is exclusive to North America...outside there is no Scion. To help the North American-only brand grow, Toyota decided to brand the 86 (they assumed it would sell well enough) under Scion as the FR-S of course..and in June Scion sales boosted a whole lot...needless to say it worked. If we didn't have Scion, then 99% it's a Toyota. However, its hard to say whether the equipment would be the same. (led drl, keyless, navigation, etc.)

Nice to know the driver chose the red one first...

... Right until all the other colors slalom passed the Firestorm, and then the Whiteout drifting countless number circles around it at the end.

Just messing around, very cool video to watch!
