I know, and the subaru oil filter, subaru brake calipers, and about a million other things. The car really does have an identity crisis and for that, I love it even more.

the car is nothing more than a car. youre the one with the crisis. this kind of reminds me when people discovered the platypus. they all thought it was a freak of nature because it didnt fall in line with the nomenclature that they established.

go find a frs
look at every part in the car - SUBARU - the car is 95% subaru.
only difference is the front bumper, color scheme, audio, shock, and suspension

youre right. it was pretty ricer of toyota to put scion badges on the frs. maybe subaru should seek legal action since scion is stealing their cars and pawning them off as their own

If the OP wants to support the actual company that built it, let him be real about it

and yes, scion should just die off already.

legal action won't work - its a written agreement between two companies
Yeah, I said it even though you're probably sarcastic.

sounds like you mad, you mad?

I wanna see the Toyota logo overlaid on the Subaru background. So the "T" over the blue and the stars.
