Dumb down, no options version....wow, really. Tells me these cats have no idea what Scion offers.
Based on this article back in 06, their target age demographic was 8-15 yr old! It did mention the median age was 31 but unless I'm blind, majority of the Scions I see around here are teenagers to mid 20 yr old young adults.

IN April, Toyota quietly began an unusual virtual promotion of its small, boxy Scion: it paid for the car's product placement in Whyville.net, an online interactive community populated almost entirely by 8- to 15-year-olds.
