guess what bolex, youngsters arent buying these. either their parents are, or old people are. im pretty sure the avery buyer age is pretty high for the xD and xB, the tC is what the “youngsters” like.

^^^^ That was ****ing classic!

I remember when these **** boxes came out and how they were supposed to be for the younger crowd. Funny thing is the Scion area had more OLD PEOPLE looking at them then young!

Why, yes! The same one I use to raid your mother’s ringpiece while she’s slurping away on my purple veiny portobello!

I realize its an auto, but I can’t remember the last time I saw a new car that didn’t have a tach. This just looks incredibly cheap. I like a few Scions but this definitely doesn’t qualify

Limited edition with hubcaps. Yuck! For that money I can get a real car in a Mazda3i (also with hubcaps). And what’s is so “hot” about this xD? Is that the color? It’s like driving a giant grapefruit on wheels. Scion, don’t bother calling anything you build limited, because your mother company is trying all it can to be number one. Also, a true limited edition car will become a classic in 25 years, will this be one of them? I don’t think so!

Scion’s target market is 18 – 24 y.o. singles. Their typical customer, however, is are 45 – 60 y.o. empty-nesters getting a 2nd or 3rd car to their Lexus or Camry. “Special Editions” like this one only highlight this gulf.
I can imagine Madge and Dick in their SCion SCenter:
“Oh look Dick, it’s so… orange…”
“It’s perfect Marge. With that traffic cone color everyone can see you coming, you can’t get any safer than that. And that shifter, well you can have some fun with that…”

“If you thought a Scion couldn’t get any hotter, boy do we have a car for you”

LLN, that was sarcasm, right?

^^ A good number of those who comment on LLN suffer from diarrhea of the mouth… and just like what comes out of their ass, they rarely have the wherewithal to appropriately clean up their comments.

As far as the articles on this site go… On more than one occasion, I’ve told LLN they need to replace the one-armed, one-eyed, exceptionally dimwitted monkey they use with a real editor. The occasional typo is one thing… but the sheer number of typographical and grammatical errors on this site is inexcusable.

Can someone here learn how to write and spell properly (including the writers at LLN)? My God, the spelling and grammatical errors on this site are unbelievable!! Gets in the way of comprehending what you’re trying to say … TIP: Read your comments carefully before you post!!

JJC…. That makes perfect sense, seeing as how the average buying age for Toyota is 47 and most Lexus purchases are made postmortem.

Limited enough to still have hub caps…

bolex- The average buying age for Scion is 39 years. That’s gotta tell you something about Toyota marketing.

its a real shame that youngsters buy into this ****, than again its the latest trend (imports). ‘youth brand’ must equal ’sissy’. ****in emo’s fags….

I’ve actually heard from a lot of people that the recent round of Scions are very cheap. A friend has an xb, pretty nice car, interiors pretty boring, but not bad overall. I’ve heard the xD is “that much worse”, looks just as bad too.

Well Toyota did screwed this one up. xA was actually fun to drive. xD not so much – bigger and softer and heavier so stronger engine does not feel THAT stronger. When xA was doing special editions Scion dropped in sunroof and better stereo. Plastic kit and another set of wheel covers on steel rim not exactly inspiring. 5 years ago Toyota wrote a book on how to create a brand, now they are writing chapter on how to kill it. This chapter does not require any patent: Ford closed deal on that one.

I saw two guys making out on a park bench a couple of weeks ago and I thought it was the gayest thing I would ever see. Boy was I wrong.

I love how toyota compensates a poor quality vehicle with a cheap sticker tag. Ive personally sat in a scion. Being a car salesman i sit in alot of different cars. The craftsman ship is terrible. There bodys are made of plastic, and all score horrible on there safety ratings. GREAT NEWS PARENTS, YOU CAN RISK YOUR KIDS LIFE AND SAVE MONEY AT THE SAME TIME!!!!!! Great jobs yet again guys. Take it back to Japan and kill your own people. We wont fall for it
