I mentioned this in another thread but I plan on leaving the Scion badge on the car and if anyone says anything that sounds negative I'll say "yeah, that's the one that Car and Driver did a comparison to the Porsche Cayman S."

Thankfully I don't know any D-bags that have called my car 'just a Scion'. But I have rebadged it to Toyota and I like the decision.

At this point the car is gaining an extreme amount of rep AS A SCION and I would encourage some of you to stay with the Scion badge if you are unsure. I mean this thing is literally in every single review, magazine, drift car, road car, sport car, race car, whatever.

The rep this thing is getting is unbelievable and I wouldn't be surprised if people really start to separate this car from the whole Scion line within a year.

If you really want to throw em for a loop just say:
"It was designed by Toyota, has a Subaru engine, and comes with Scion badges"

E.G My Situation this morning. A few of my classmate were all walking to the parking lot where my new FR-S sit. They were in love but by the end of the discussion they were like "but any ways its a SCION" it pissed me off. i hopped in my car and peel off only realized that i just finished a 100 miles. i saw the check engine light came on then off by this afternoon. (hoping everything is okay)

So i want to rep scion but then i dont? I want to debadge.... but dont want to leave it blank.

I'd be more concerned about the Check Engine Light instead of the damn badge!

but that's just me....

Thats just trunk space up front for most of the exotics. Its not too bad considering the top speeds they can reach.

I see carpet liner so you could very well be right. I also really hope that guy wasn't driving super fast on a small street like that.

SubieNate · 09-12-2012, 03:04 PM

Yeah, if there were an engine up there there's no way the pole would have penetrated that far.

Looks like a Ferrari 360 Modena to me but who knows.

Headlights seem about right with the Modena, door's lines are similar, I believe I see an air intake scoop on the right side, and the wheels look stock and the signature front scoops.

I think I'll mark it up as one tough pole for this one
