Make: Toyota, Model: Scion FR S
 
Just received title for my 2014 and it lists the make as Toyota and the model as a Scion FR S. My insurance and registration also list the make as a Toyota and the model as a Scion FR S. What's up with that?

because scion is made by Toyota, idk...

Suddenly a rebadge seems legit and a morally responsible thing to do. lol

In government terms, it was a lot simpler to just see Scion as models from Toyota, instead of there just being another car brand.

Less headaches.


I'm guessing, don't quote me.

Oh, someone already did. Opps.

That's probably true since my Honda-badged Acura got me out of parking tickets a few times :)

Toyota makes scions, so Toyota is the make

I have heard of the same thing happening to tC owners as well.

It's the same for my registration here in Arizona but not my insurance. I just assumed it's a government thing where Scion is just considered a sub-brand of Toyota and not a fully different marque.

That is correct!

My insurance slip and registration both say Toyota on them, which is fitting as I am re badged, everywhere anyhow.

Got "Toyota" written on my tint ticket as well as my insurance…..lol
