You missed the "Sports car" part of that most successful quote.
Most Scions are appliances, nothing more. The original post is about sports cars specifically, not every car in the world.
AFAIK the Corolla is the best selling car of all time (better than the beetle even) but that doesn't matter for the point of this thread either.
While many younger people with lower incomes may well want this car (probable even based on pricing comments on the forum) that's not the only market, nor is it really even Toyota's intended target. Even the Scion brand itself has an average purchaser age of 30, which isn't that young really.
