Not to derail this thread more but I go back and forth on the Scion brand. The best example I can give is how would you feel if you found out the next awesome car like this was a PT Cruiser? Would you happily tool around in the PT Cruiser and not feel a little self conscious? If not then good you don't care what other people think. I personally don't care either, but I also don't like people making assumptions about me. I work with a lot of professional people that drive cars I wouldn't even consider buying due to how much they cost. So I drive a practical car and almost feel like if I drove a Scion they'd think I was trying to fake being "high end" like them or something. Yep it's kind of childish but the reality does exist in minds. Most of them will only know about scion from the "LOOK AT ME" commercials.

However, this car I feel is a chance to change that brand stigma around. So yeah let it shine if have the guts. :P
