New xB billboard?

My Jennay managed to snap this pic North bound on 95 just outside Philly. Looks like a new billboard to me.

I interpret it as it not being for everyone's taste... but I think they are using reverse psychology. Saying that If you want to stand out get a scion. I think it works. But yeah, I'm a designer, my wife is not. She didnt get it. lol

I dig the message.

Everybody knows that this isn't the car for the masses. Somebody did that already, something about a "people's car" or something

.

This sign simply states that you must be an individual to drive this car. If it's not your taste, I have a lovely Camry to show you...

hmmm I see what you guys are saying, maybe it just me but I felt like the point would have been made better with some rewording of that. Something more catchy and clever, it just seems too much of a negative statement to me.

Duplicate threads as mentioned. I'm going to lock this one since it was second. Please repost the pic and location in this thread:

Thanks.

BTW, the way I read it was "So wrong for so many... But so right for the few of us that get it." It's almost more of a reinforcement to owners than an ad for new buyers...
