I'm amazed to see more brand snobbery on this board (dedicated to an affordable, RWD, sporty coupe) than on the BMW boards I frequent.
You are right and also wrong.

Toyota owns Lexus and also Scion.

Lexus is i higher class car company LFA, ISF, etc

Scion is a lower class car company, which makes cheaper affordable cars intended for younger drivers.

The downside of this is that the quality used is a bit cheaper and performance wise is also down.

So no, they're not the same and it is a big deal.

When you think of Toyota sport cars, you think of Supra, Aristo, Mr2, Celica, and of course the famous AE86.

... then theres the Scion TC .
