Make: Toyota, Model: Scion FR S

Just received title for my 2014 and it lists the make as Toyota and the model as a Scion FR S. My insurance and registration also list the make as a Toyota and the model as a Scion FR S. What's up with that?

Suddenly a rebadge seems legit and a morally responsible thing to do. lol

In government terms, it was a lot simpler to just see Scion as models from Toyota, instead of there just being another car brand.

Less headaches.


I'm guessing, don't quote me.

Oh, someone already did. Opps.

That's probably true since my Honda-badged Acura got me out of parking tickets a few times

It's the same for my registration here in Arizona but not my insurance. I just assumed it's a government thing where Scion is just considered a sub-brand of Toyota and not a fully different marque.

My insurance slip and registration both say Toyota on them, which is fitting as I am re badged, everywhere anyhow.
