I don't know. It seems like the content is fairly accurate, and it was posted on the 2nd. If so, props to Hachiroku for providing me with the only somewhat convincing April Fools this year.
If it's true, I think that Scion should just convert all of it's items to the Toyota name. I can't understand why/how they would move Scion to entry-level luxury. The only car that fits right now is the FR-S, and it will be years until new variants of it are spawned off the FR-S. The car was really always begging to be a Toyota to begin with, and considering many fully loaded Toyota models will make there way into the $40,000 area, I don't see the need for it.
A better idea would be to do something similar to the new SRT Viper. It was formerly a "Dodge Viper", but then they spawned the SRT name as a brand.
"TRD FR-S"? Maybe just make TRD it's own brand name, and not use it for selling overpriced parts?
Last thought here; I think the Scion emblem would look 90000% cooler if they took the word "Scion" off of it. It's a bit redundant, and without it, it kinda reminds me of the Silvia emblems (which I think are tasteful).
