Yeah I honestly felt the same way too when I heard the news way back then that this would be branded as a Scion. With Scion's pricing scheme, I thought buying this car would be much less of a hassle, and really affordable at the same time. Can't complain about that.
A lot of people got pissed because Scions have not-so-good rep, owner-base and marketing wise. But all in all, who cares what people think about what you drive? Basing your car-buying decision (a $20k+ investment) on an emblem and/or for "street cred" is really, really dumb imo. Buy what makes you happy, not what makes other people happy.
I decided that the moment I decided I wanted a HONDA as a first car, lol... We all know what kind of rep they have among the tuner/enthusiast crowd. Tons of bad apples. But in the end, I don't care.
I'll admit though, I get hounded quite often; from Mustangs to Porsches, lol.
Already used to it and idgaf.
