Vanderstyne Scion

Most of our smart Scion drivers know about the Scion Pure Price guarantee. If you haven't heard of Pure Price, it means that the low price you see advertised for a new Scion on a dealer's website, the Scion website, or an ad will be the price that you pay. Scion drivers stated they wanted a simpler car-buying process with less pressure and bigger discounts, and the brand listened. The Pure Lease program…

While many auto shows are the place to be if you want to witness the unveiling of new production modes and ground breaking concept cars, even we here at Vanderstyne Scion are willing to admit that these exciting events tend to happen in a rather boring way. The show floor of these events are often stiff and maybe a tad  overly-professional looking. Scion, on the other hand, likes to shake things up even in the…

With the upcoming Scion iQ, Scion has officially entered the small car market. These compact, fuel-efficient models have been big sellers overseas, and have been picking up here in the US.

Who is interested in making their carbon footprint smaller? And we mean a lot smaller. Enter the new 2012 Scion iQ. Starting at around $16k, this Scion is officially known as a micro-subcompact.

The team releases music videos for up and coming artists, features galleries from aspiring photographers, and helps make documentaries with talented filmmakers. The initiative is nothing short of impressive, and everyone at Vanderstyne Scion absolutely loves…
