Anything really.. if you can find a way to get the Scion Enthusiasts together.. you will find yourself with a good way of marketing Scion. Usually little dealership car shows/GTG/BBQ's are the best way of drawing attention to the dealership.. I would look into that route!

i think for the first meet, just have a bbq or a show. if you want to be number 1, youve got lots of work to do to top Miller Toyota.

anything.... ok:

come to baltimore so i have a good dealer to work with, most of the ones in my area couldnt give .02 of what scion owners think

have a bbq, reach out to the scion owners, when u sell a scion, keep in contact with that person, let them know what scion evetns are going on, what dealer events are goin on, customer appreciation (sp? i suck at spelling) days, go the extra mile to help someone when they need info on a part or service, dont just direct them to the website like alot of dealers in my area do

customer service, my dealer suckx majorly that i only got the one free oil change becase i hated they way they treated me, and i saw how the guys drove my car really ____ed me off. now i dont let anyone work on my car, i have to really know u and trust u

two, some sort of show, dont try to be the biggest show right off the back, but definatly some sort of show, gtg, bbq
everyone loves going to shows, and if its in the area, and i dont have to drive forever, its even better, im sure as a dealer you could get scion corp. to help with the shows and stuff

I got my tC from Leesburg Toyota and man, they blow in the 'customer appreciation dept.' AFAIK, they don't do jack as far as events, shows, anything. I got two letters in the mail thanking me for buying a car there. That was it.

If you guys put *anything* worthwhile together, I'd be there fo sho.
