What to say? Toyota/Scion?

So for those of you that switched your emblems from Scion to Toyota, maybe even from FRS to GT86, whats your response when people ask you what car you are driving?

I like that! Has anyone tried? Does the badging from one of the Lexus lineup work?

I was so going to rebadge to Toyota, but after the second guy asked me "Is that the new Scion with the boxer engine??" before he could see the badging, I decided to just leave it.
