Default Scion Bounty Hunt Set to Start on Sunday!



The teams have been chosen and the rules have been stated, and although it's too late to compete you can still follow along with the action. Seven teams are competing against each other to locate a hidden Scion on a six-day, five-state hunt throughout the east coast. The event will culminate on Long Island at Scion EXPOSED, Sunday Sep 24th.

To stay on top of all the Bounty Hunt activities, text BH78247 from your cell.

And now? Here is all of the information from Scion!

A Stolen Scion X? Five States? A $10,000 prize? Join SCION X: BOUNTY HUNTERS from September 10th-16th and watch as seven teams race their Scions from city to city following clues and competing in challenges to find a stolen Scion X for the chance to drive away with the $10,000 grand prize.

At Nixon's Farm, just a short ride out of Washington D.C, the journey kicks off on September 10th with Training Day, welcoming all scion enthusiasts as the seven teams introduced embark on their mission to find the missing Scion X. Scion owners can pick up great automotive tips as well as learn skills ranging from dj-ing to sharp shooting, and even try their hand at paintball or some slot racing, before the scavenger hunt send-off.

Over the next six days, excitement ensues as the team members show off their smarts, skills, and Scions and battle it out while traveling through D.C., Annapolis, Atlantic City, Philadelphia, Connecticut and NYC to track down the stolen Scion, $10,000 in prize money. The teams will compete in a variety of challenges including a relay race on the Philly Art Museum Steps, the building of their own Model Car, and a rickshaw race on the Atlantic City boardwalk, all the while still enjoying the cities they cross, making pit stops at Pat's CheeseSteak for a taste of Philly's best and popping into Manhattanıs Classic Car Club for drinks. The Bounty Hunt ends in New York City, where the winning team collects the missing Scion X and the $10,000
prize.

The Grand Finale? On Sunday September 24th, Scion owners everywhere meet at beautiful Jones Beach, Long Island to witness the winning team collect their Grand Prize and see the premiere of the exclusive Bounty Hunt Footage Films. But more importantly they will be there to enjoy the extreme attractions and show off their customized Scion, and maybe take home one of the many awards that'll be given from best ride to hottest paint job.

To stay on top of all the Bounty Hunt activities, Scion fans can text BH78247 to receive daily updates on all the action (** std sms rates apply**).

this is for all the teams: Make sure to get a lot of pics a long the way. Not everyone will be able to see the "race" or the "stolen" Scion X
