Is there any correlation to badge number and VIN? For example as badge number increases VIN increases.

I'm under the impression (not sure how) that the numbered badges are being applied randomly. Like imagine a box of all 2500 mixed and someone reaches in and affixes one. Versus sequentially as they come off the line...?

This is correct based on what I heard as well from Scion/Toyota. Though it does not seem entirely random. Think iTunes 'random'.

There are two autos in the wild in Hawaii. There are 3 autos unspoken for, and 9 manuals waiting for owners.

Historically - Hawaii has received 2 #0001 badges for scion releases. Pretty cool.

Your both wrong the badges are put on the cars in order Toyota just ships the cars out to different regions to keep the numbers random across the U.S.

The Scion tC Release Series 8.0 owners had a problem with the badges being stolen between the factory and dealers but somehow Toyota Corporate knows which RS number goes with which VIN number as the RS 8.0 owners got replacement badges.

They do this with Scion Release Series cars also.

damn - I should have asked for the lowest VIN. I asked for the highest VIN - thinking I could get a newer car, and still have a chance at getting the lower badge numbers. #0012 is sitting in the Scion Honolulu showroom.
