Very cool. I like the orange MR2, and I wish the xB looked like the concept.

I pass by Toyota USA at least once a week. I didn't know there was a museum there. I'll check it out tomorrow.

at the scion logo in the center of the first shot. Shouldn't the toyota logo be in the center? Don't you love how the "youthfullness" of the scion brand is transferred to the logo as well where it's bigger than the other logos yet it's the bastard child of Toyota.

BTW, that last line is just my opinion. As you can already tell, i'm not a fan of Scion, and the majority of idiot drivers I come across that tend to drive scions doesn't help their cause either.

Some of those concepts are just mock-ups.

However, heres one remarkable thing. All those cars in there are in good running condition! They have one staff member there whos job is to roll the cars outside and start them up on a schedule
