I thought that commercial was slightly ghey. It was cool to see a lot of "individual" cars, but the dude at the end totally killed it for me. Up till that point, the Scion commercials have been pretty on point... This new one is so gimmicky. If they would have just cut out the last part, the commercial would have been rad.

The scion commercial:
YouTube - Scion "United by Individuality" TV Commercial

The commercial it was emulating:
YouTube - Original Civic Nation Commercial.. no funny sound

I like the fact that they tied The Warriors into it by having the guy on the mic mimicking Syrus. For those too young to remember The Warriors, you should check it out on DVD and you'll see why the crazy appearances of each model Scion relates to it :)

I really dig the commercial: Both because I've been a huge Scion fan since they arrived and the amount of support shown for their owners. I used to have an '04 RS1 Hot Lava xB and currently own an '06 xA :D

We should get a Fit commercial going. Or a Honda one in general. Modded and unmodded Fits, Civics, Accords etc...All coming together in praise and respect of one another simply for loving the same thing :D

Seriously I hate that commercial so much. They try and make it seem like driving a Scion makes you all hard and shit. Like Bahumut said, the commercial would be fine if it didn't have that guy screaming. Actually, if he just said it casually, it would've been better as well.

Scratch that, that guy seems like a loser. Him being completely taken out of the commercial would be tight.

I was @ the filming/party that Scion threw for the owners.

Commercial is really cool, but the owners didn't drive the cars some valet service did. (BTW lots of problems when the cars where picked up). Scion threw a huge event. They started off with free rooms and a $100 debit card for all guest. Then they held a event/dinner/open bar/concert with Red Man and Flo Rida/revealing of the new Release series xD.

Loads of fun. Most of the Scions highlighted are friends of mine. Too bad mine was totalled a month before the casting call.

this commerical was lame.

united by individuality? puh-lease. united because we are all the same. most groups/clubs are.

this is almost a rip off of the civic nation commmercials. i like how they tried to make it all epic...but alas there is NOTHNG epic about a scion.

i never want honda to do a commercial like this for our cars. we are above this.
