Ask yourself a question...

Are these Scions being bought because they're cool and stylish?
Or are they being bought because they're cheap?
Once these people graduate from college.... do they want to keep the Scion? Does owning a Scion make them want to "graduate" to a Toyota?

Pontiac still sells, even if they're all POS's too. but that doesn't help Pontiac's reputation... nor does it help GM's reputation... and it just perpetuates the fact that GM is a directionless company.
