oh the new Scion commercials are out and about on select stations. One being G4. Make sure you keep an eye out for them. But here is one of them.

I like them. They have three of them like that. One has a unicorn. They do catch your attention.

good morning everyone!

FYI in case you didn't know...

The Scion press conference to unveil the new scion concept car will take place today at 3:15 PM ET at the New York auto show. For those of us unable to attend, the event will be streamed live to the Scion.com website. Following the event, a video clip of the press conference will also be available for viewing at Scion.com.

I liked it, too. I also watched some others on youtube and they have some pretty neat ones.

Any more info on the CMU event? I met a girl at the bank that just bought the new XB. I want to get her to come to some of our events. She seems pretty cool. Its alway fun to get a new owner excited about their car and what they can do with it.

kinda lame compared to what they were putting out last year

i liked how it morphed between real and cartoon, like a kind new age rotoscoping type deal

this reminds me of a company that got its budget cut and had to be creative

Aww comon Steve you should know from a design standpoint that you can't keep doing the same thing. It gets old.

Yeah those old commercials are cool but they get old after sometime. So now they are doing a different approach. These also catch you eyes because you keep watching to see what is going to happen.

truly a letdown

scion sales are down 16 straight months then they come out with this saying its sporty and fun

at least there now admitting that the XB2 is boring

"However, the first time I saw a picture of the new, second-generation xB, I didn’t think dog-smackin’ cool, I thought Kursk, the ill-fated Russian submarine. It was just a concept, Scion told me. But then they made the production version almost exactly like the concept, and sales plopped off the chart shortly thereafter."

looks like the slump is going to continue
