If you weren’t around for the original incarnation of Scion, Toyota’s aughts-era attempt to sell cars to Da Yout’, you missed some decent cars and a lot of pretty cringey marketing

@michaelgemar I still find myself quoting that show. I may be the only one 😆
@jalefkowit It’s a delightfully weird and funny show.

Utterly by chance, unless today's news brought them inexplicably out of the woodworks, I saw a Scion iQ on the road this morning. Underway, too!
They're so rare that at first I thought it might have just as easily been the Aston Martin version of the same car, not that they're any more plentiful...
“With the news today that Toyota has resurrected Scion as ‘a new brand built around curiosity, possibility, and the freedom to explore mobility in new ways,’ via a trio of very different vehicles to kick off this next chapter, we thought it might be beneficial to flip back a few pages and revisit the prologue and first chapter of the Japanese carmaker’s funky ancillary brand.”

@jalefkowit I’m just here for the Frisky Dingo reference.
