Scion Car Reviews

Founded in 2002, Scion is a marquee of vehicles produced by Toyota Motor Corporation. Toyota's idea with Scion was to attract younger 'Generation Y' buyers. To achieve that goal, Scions are priced low and are easy to accessorize. As of February 2007, the average age of a Scion buyer was 39, the lowest in the industry.
