Cop who knows cars sees kid speeding from a distance in a frs looking car he reports a black scion frs. The other officers who don't know cars let a toyota gt86 go because it's not the car they are looking for

Again rebadge implied badge is the only thing that changed and that just isn't true. What I'm wondering is if you really think adding toyota badges to a lexus turns it into a toyota since they were only a badge apart from each other anyways. I assure you it doesn't this car will never be a toyota soarer because it's…

hes just saying in america the usual custom is to dress up your car to looks fancier or more expensive. theres people who take their 328i and add an M badge to looks like a more expensive model. Or they will just remove the 328i and buy an m3 badge again very stupid and not fooling anyone. But with that said i…

when did i say it wasnt a toyota in japan? are you mentally challenged? its a lexus here and a toyota in japan. this car is here so its a lexus not a toyota but not just because of the badge, because of the engine, gauges, steering wheel, VIN and many other differences. This car isnt a toyota it shouldnt have that…

Even stupider is downgrading your car by rebadging a nice acura as a shitty honda because JDM

beYour cars a scion dude stop denying it....scion is fine it’s nothing to be embarrassed about. Having a toyota in America is nothing to proud about anyways....

You're lying to yourself. You think jdm is cool. Scion is a fine company they make the frs which is a good car, good enough for you to buy it at least

Except that there are many differences between the two and they don’t simply slap on a badge at the last second. Beyond the american vin and chassis here’s all the other differences:

Nope

According to the analog instrument panel it’s a lexus. And the engine that it originally had and the vin and the ad and the title of this article and literally everything else. It’s a lexus not a toyota and you can’t rebadge a lexus and turn it into a toyota without changing the drive side the vin and about 20 other…

It s more than badge...how many times do I have to point out the steering wheel is on the wrong side. Do you think this is something they do at the last second? The vin is american not Japanese the wheel is lhd and the ad itself says it’s rebadged to look like a toyota. Also the ad clearly states it’s a lexus sc for…

Why are you embarrassed of scion but thinks toyota is cool? You're car isn't a jdm model it's usdm why not just make it a subaru brz? That's at least american and has the wheel on the left side

It's a safety hazard for cops to not be able to id your car. Often times on highways they have amber alerts for grey Hondas this would work if your car had the wrong badge. It's no different from driving with a fake license plate

Let’s get something straight. This car was always built as a lexus. At the factory in japan this chassis was destined for usdm. They don’t build 99.99% of a sc300/soarer then slap on badges at the end. It starts as a lexus with a usdm vin. It was never a soarer with a lexus rebadge. This car is american it shouldn’t…

It’s illegal to drive with false or no license plates. This is so people whether it be a police officer or bystander can identify their vehicle of they need to. Ever driven on the highway and seen “silver honda plate #xxx amber alert keep eye out”. If you are running the wrong labels that should be illegal as it is…

The car for sale is a lexus not a toyota it should not have toyota badges. I think it should be illegal to rebadge your car

Except that it started life as a lexus destined for America. It was never a toyota it was always a lexus so you look like an idiot driving a left hand drive Japanese only car. One time I saw a toyota Altezza badges lexus at a gas station and I go sweet car! Did you import it yourself, how much was the lhd conversion?

I FUCKING HATE REBADGING. This is a lexus. it is not a toyota. this car is not JDM. the steering wheel is on the left. Stop fucking making your acuras lexus and subaru looks cheaper than they are. This is easily my least favorite mod that is popular these days and cant stand the jdm obsession this country has. I just…

punch above a weight class is a boxing reference that people use to describe products which perform far better than expected. Im saying the tesla model S punches way above its weight class meaning it performs like a supercar with a sedan body and it literally performs better than its weight class meaning 5000 lb cars.…
