I've always had enthusiasm for the cars I drove, no matter if it was a '68 bug or a '95 Metro - I've always made the best of it, and had fun with it.
But the Scion, it is different. This is the first time I've felt like part of a community. Thanks, ScionLife!

Cool thread. First time I've come across it. I'll agree totally, these cars are infectious...always have gotten tons of compliments on mine.
It's an '04...the first one to arrive here in SE Connecticut. I had test driven it one day on a whim and got hooked. 6-months later when I decided to finally take the plunge...there she was...waiting for me...the same car on display in the showroom. I literally drove the car off the showroom floor. Had her now for about 21/2 years and have finally started modding (caught the bug from my 18-year old and his Honda/Acura builds)
Scion life is really a hoot. Gotten some good advice and support from the tech section too.
I'm rockin the SL sticker on the rear window....'nuff said.

Reading the Scion lit it sounds like they were going for the cult thing to at least some extent. Too bad the xA is a gonner..but..probably will do something for the "cool" factor in the end. Guess the membership exclusivity is secure.
