Not likely but also entirely possible that the end date for Scion was set before they ever even announced it existed. The companies look out far further than it may seem to many. There are no knee jerk reactions or sudden changes possible in the industry.

That is very true, even the change over to absorb the iM, iA and FR-S had to have been well planned because retooling takes time even though there counter parts to toyota etc are the same. Also I have a feeling Scion as a brand was under some sort of probationary period.
