I don't know much about Toyota but I just heard that they're killing the Scion brand. They're rebranding some as Toyota's and other models will be killed, but the Scion brand will be gone very soon.

I guess this wasn't totally unexpected. They were marketing to youth, but the youth weren't buying. I heard they sold a ton of xB's to retirees, though.

Do you have any numbers on the sales of Scion FR-S vs. Subaru BRZ?

I just bought a used TC.

So for Saturn Outlook and Pontiac GTO. I guess I buy cars no one wants LOL.

When Scion was still around they were sold at Toyota dealers.
When Scion was still around you could finance them thru Toyota Financial Services.
When Scion was still around they were serviced at Toyota dealers.

Now that Scion is ending.
Everything is still the same. Sold at Toyota dealer, financed by Toyota, serviced by Toyota.

All that Scion accomplished was brand dilution and ineffective use of resources.

Toyota is finally coming to it's senses. They even discontinued the Venza.
