Thank you Bob and Patrick, I am certain that as long as the Scion buyers realize the limitations of the car and get past the marketing they will find it a fine urban car. Ignore the rear seats. There is a Aston Martin version of this car with a properly fitted interior any gentleman would find proper. http://www.astonmartin.com/cars/cygnet

VERY well done review Miguel... I just wish they let the local scion enthusiast know about this event you were at to help point out some of the key features and benefits of Scion.

I am going to post your video up to my Facebook tonight with a response directly to scion, but please don't take any offense to the comments the folks will say... I don't see how they can have a new model release without inviting those who market the brand... A sales guy is book trained in the features, an enthusiast can point out the lesser obvious and explain more indepth. Very Disappointed in how Scion/Toyota handled this!

The company was founded in 1959 by Jem Marsh and aerodynamicist Frank Costin, with the name Marcos coming from Marsh and Costin. Costin brought serious aircraft and racing design experience to the project, and that influence showed up immediately in the cars: low frontal area, light weight,…

A Judge’s View from Pinehurst: Sandhills Motoring Expo 2026 by Mike Thies

The 2026 Sandhills Motoring Expo Concours in the Village was one of those days that reminds you why we do this. Held Sunday, May 24, in the historic Village of Pinehurst, the event brought together more than 130 judged automobiles representing over 40 manufacturers, and from this judge’s point of view, it was a first-class field, a well-run operation, and a genuinely enjoyable day with owners who were proud to…
