We can have our Scion group . . .just add Nor*Cal Scions on our rides

norcal and be proud

 

It would be really nice to have just 1 club, but it means all would have to be willing. I know that I am, and I have been talking with bamm about it.

 

Sorry, but you all are making me have a laugh attack!
No offense meant to anybody... this is just my 2.3 cents worth.
Many clubs, one big club, or many with one blanket club. WHAT!?!?
Rep nor*cal??? What? Is there something lower quality about the rest of the nation?
Or world for that matter??
If there is, why do we spend so much time and money on JDM parts?
You all know who you do, or don't get along with. Don't worry about petty details, and
who has this, or who said that. Just a bunch of wasted energy.
How about.... No clubs! Just have get togethers and shows and stuff, like is done
now, but with-out the ( I'm with this club) stickers and crap.
Enjoy each others company and cars for who, and what they are. Never mind
the, real or fabricated, short-comings of either.
Happy Halloween

 

I'm with Dave... clubs create separation. Yet, that is what some want and I'm cool with that. You don't have to be friends or hang with everyone all the time. If anything; I would hope that everyone on here would be cool with another Scion owner hanging out with them. That is community; what it should be.

 

I agree Dave, but the way I am (personally) is I am cool with whoever, no matter what club they are in (if any at all). The ONLY reason why I really wanted a club was since it made it easier to get sponsored, but I don't care much about that anymore so I am not sure how long I will stay in any sort of club. I hang out with people because of the people, not just because of the cars, or whatever club they might be in.

 

I'm not too interested in any clubs. I just like hanging out with people and having a good time.

 

I wasn't interested in clubs as well, and I still sorta am. I joined SE because I knew a lot of people that have joined, both in Norcal and SoCal.

Part of the reason I was so reluctant to join was because I didn't want to be part of the drama. Which is probably why people want to wish that it went back to the early days when there wasn't as much drama between Scion owners as there is today. Before, we only had one club. But now, we have 7+ clubs each with a handful of people, and also many of those owners are in at least 2 of those clubs anyway. Not only that, all those clubs are Scion only. Our community is big but come on, 7+ Scion exclusive clubs in half of a state? No wonder people are hopping around from club to club and also no wonder a lot of new Scion owners don't know which club to join, so they don't join at all.

 

I agree with Doc and Dave

Once in a while, I visit this site and read some interesting subjects. Unfortunately, this subject caught my eye. Why? Well, once upon a time, there's this great idea for Scion owners, new and old, to meet @ a predetermined time and place with a simple goal which is to meet other Scion owners, have conversations that revolves around Scion, help each other out with Mod Ideas, Have fun, Eat & Drink and that's it.

If you drop the "Club" portion and just meet, it's more simplier. Dayam it's just a meet. You want to compete in a show? Go for it. You want to start a club
and compete in a show? Go for it. You want to spend 15k on your 15k Car? Go for it. The bottom line is, people are different and there's going to be difference in opinion.

Do what you enjoy and enjoy what you do... PEACE... Dayam... I must be bored tonight...

 

<warning: i have nothing constructive to contribute!!!>

damn...its like 5 years ago...all over again...!!!

Rog...you shoulda just came out and said it..."WE STARTED THIS SCION SH*T...AND THAT'S THE MUTHAF'N THANX WE GIT...!!!"

and what the hell am i even doing in here...???

i must be lost...!!!

was on my way to p*rnhub.com...hahahahahahahaha...!!!

 

And the "true" OG's have spoken!!

 

(Just tossing in some humor, guys.)

 

^ I like the team philosophy/mission.

 

Take me back to the old days! What up Na'im, shoot those were the days before all the hype of ...whatever.

 

i think this is very much possible...i think we would have to let those who wanted to keep their club that they are in now and then just join the Nor-Cal Scion club (or whatever it gets called) Some mentioned drama...Well my take is that no matter what you do or say or happens or who is involved, there WILL ALWAYS BE SOME KIND OF DRAMA. It just happens when you get people together with different personalities. It's a matter of how people deal with it. So the quesiton remains...

Who would be willing to do this???

 

Actually I look at it as this being an entire brand of cars that is only that old, so those who were into this brand's scene at it's inception are indeed the OGs for this brand.

Another way to look at it is simply to consider the membership number here at ScionLife...

The person making the comment suggesting there is no such thing as OGs didn't join SL until after there were 33,299 other members.

The OGs above were members number 139 and 416 - obviously here at the beginning. (I'm 11821 down on the list...)

With a new marque, the history of the marque itself is the entire history on which to judge OG status.

For example, I'm NOT an OG... I've been mildly modding my cars since 1964, but I didn't get into Scions until January of 2005. There were folks in California in the Scion scene before they were even available in my area.

Now, since I'm not an OG and not a California owner (and not that much a club person) I'll bow out.

See ya guys!
