Scion Cars - Scion Prices
Scion cars are manufactured by the Toyota Motor Corporation and they have rapidly established themselves as
the new name in fashionable cars that began with their first model the Scion XB, back in 2004. Scion went after
the novice car buyers who were looking for good value for their money and hassle-free purchasing as well as a
wide range of optional extras to make their car a bit more unique. Scion has a tendency to market themselves to
a younger driver, incorporating features like powerful sound systems to make themselves more attractive to these
buyers. The 2013 lineup includes five models each with a range of optional upgrades in terms of body kits, custom
exhausts and sound systems. The no-hassle buying process with Scion makes purchase a breeze, thus further appealing
to the younger market demographic.
