If they continue to put this on and want to get possible buyers there to see the possibilities. Wouldn't it make sense to try and get as many cars on display as possible?

This is just an example of the type of attitude some people have. Notice the KMEL logo on it. That's just going ot reflect on KMEL, not Scion.

So think about that what changed for the past 2 SN's "KMEL" . So maybe we won't have to see that crap next year and we can bring our kids and just enjoy everything that Scion does for us.

i kinda figured this was going to happen again this year so i decided not to even enter my car and see if it would get picked even though i know it wouldn't have. I really hope something changes for next year so people dont get their stuff stolen. RIDICULOUS for me to even say such a thing.

I was reading the Scionnight.com Blog and I should have read this guy's entry. If I didn't know any better I would say this guy was a Psychic.

Well anyways I am still kinda ____ed off, not just because it was ghetto. I can't hate on a free event for scion owne, but that toyota/scion & hoffman lewis would leave it to clear channel's ghetto child KMEL to promote it. Seems to me that they were just letting anybody in. I got into it with some little "mac dre kid" that thought it was cool to cut in front of me after I had to spend 45 mins in line. then when I checked dude he was like "uh uh, I was here already blood, you trippin" I was like " you better pull that **** with someone who be afraid of you cause I will knock your little @ss out! him and his boy tried to get bold then I told him to step up and get knocked out. So I can only assume he went else where and cut cause he didn't go anywhere near me or infront of me. Well I got some pix of the cars that were there I will post them up asap.

I had a good time. Unfortunately, I didn't arrive in time to see T-Pain and others perform. It was a FREE show, so there can't be any complaints as far as I'm concerned. This was my first time. As soon as we left Daly City we had a dropped TC w/ rims following me and along came another TC w/ rims. All three of us got there at the same time. My girl was blown away by how many Gen1XB's there were. I thought it was pretty cool being that my car was one of the few 2nd gens around. When I paid for parking the attendant wasn't sure what kinda car I had...haha. Good Event overall. Definitely going to next years.

i liked last year alot better. at least this year i got to ride 2 rides without ridiculous lines. but all in all.. needed more scions in the park, some of hte stuff was WAYY TOOOOOOOOOOO Close to eachother... like the "rap" battles and the break dancing infront of eachtother i thought was purty stupid. the sound system sucked imo. no freebies. and i didnt even like the lineup so i didnt even wanna go to the concert. i love hip hop and rap and stuff, but it would be nice to have a variety, or at least something that can appeal to alot more people. bring in some local reggae/ska/hiphop bands... now that would be sick

What is the goal of Scion Night? Is it customer appreciation?
Trying to get new customers onboard?
Family Event?
Perhaps our expectations are too high or are "mis-aligned" with the new customers that Scion wants to attract.

I still had a great time,my family still had a great time. I didn't have a booth this year but still had a great time. Carlos brought his little girls and you know what, we know what its like at theme parks and fairs here in Norcal. Great America is no different than what that night was, the county fair in San Jose is no different; Heck man, we still had a blast and I want to thank WaterDragon-Mike for winning my kid a guitar! Thanks man, you freaking rule! OMC-Ric still had fun and he doesn't like rap or rock. :D I know that we have had tame Scion Nights in the past, but this is just going to get bigger every year. We can't always control everything. So just go with it or don't go. I ended up driving back into the parking lot at the end of the night to give a few friends a ride back to their cars and all the scion owners in the parking lot were still having fun, showing off what they had! That was cool, it was a still a Scion event and I had fun. Heck, I rolled in with Leo's tC with everyone else. I payed for the parking and was still proud to do it. (By the way, Thank you Leo for driving my car to Scion Night for me!!) I can't wait to do it again next year with my family by my side.
Much props to Scion for putting together another great event that no other car company can do. I basically bought a car with great events that come standard. No other car out there comes with that.

Greetings Scion Owners,
Scion Night 4 has come and gone. For those that were able to attend the event and enjoy themselves, our mission was accomplished. For those that were were able to attend and did not enjoy themselves, I apologize.
We strive to make Scion Night an opportunity to invite owners and their friends to enjoy the park on our dime (and your $5 for parking). In our effort to expose the brand to more people we collaborated with KMEL for some of the artists and promotion of the test drive. I have read the concerns and complaints regarding the "family environment" and appreciate the comments, especially as a dad.
In our efforts to experiment with the brand, we have created a variety of events that people like and some that they don't like as much. I want to thank the 1,367 Scion owners that attended the event, and especially the 24 Scion owners that were there from 11am till 11pm.
Rest assured that the next Scion Night (or variation on that theme) will be different , because the time has come to change things up. There will be a lot of consideration regarding the "constructive criticism" provided, and hopefully we can continue to participate in great events.
Thanks for your passion to the brand and the community.
