Question about your FR-S title

I went to title and register my FR-S today. I received a title that has Toy (Toyota) as the Make and Sci (Scion) as the model without FR-S mentioned anywhere. In the Manufactuer's Certificate of Origin (MCO), the manufactuer is listed as Toyota and the model is Scion FR-S and it seems like the title only shows the first 3 characters so thats why my title appears the way it does. Is this the same for everybody? I just find it strange that if this is the case, no Scion cars will actually have the correct model listed in the title.

Thanks. That sounds about right then. In NJ they only use the first 3 characters and that is why the make is TOY and model is SCI. Can't understand why they have to limit to 3 characters. What happens if there are 2 manufactures that has the same first 3 characters in their name
