I'm sure the guys who "run" scion orgasmed when the TOYOTA FT-86 concept started cruising around and said "we have to have this car so we can attach it to an over hyped racing team!"
Scion is just a wanna be car company, I mean really. They don't have anything that is their "own". It's all remodeled Toyota's. Poorly done at that.
Flame suit equipped, I know Dragonatti is out there somewhere ready to stuff it down my throat.

I'm good. I've come to the terms that you guys will never get it thus no need to debate with you anymore. My Scion speaks for itself, you should know this by now. It's not me who will have a heart attack if it becomes a Scion or if it becomes a Toyota.
Situation = Win Win for me. I'm laughing at all the so-called/self-proclaimed financial and marketing experts in this forum though.

True that. Enthusiasts are like endangered species now. If carmakers decide to go green, we will be killed off soon. Hopefully, there will be something green like Tesla Roadster.

That V8 is axed for 2011. Running the tC2's new 2ar engine now....Just FYI.
Besides that was the only tC with a motor swap in it that was competing professionally. All the OTHER racing teams were running the factory motors. Including the other drift tC that Ken Gushi drives.
One car out of many, and people take that as the example....geesh.
