West Herr Toyota Scion of Williamsville

Do you know of a nonprofit organization that could use some new or better transportation? For the second year in a row, Toyota has kicked off its "100 Cars for Good" program, which awards 100 Toyota vehicles to U.S. nonprofit organizations over the course of 100 days. Winners will be selected through a public voting forum on the Japanese automaker's Facebook page, and applications will be accepted there as well, until March 12, 2012.

Some of our astute readers may know that the 2012 Toyota Corolla is in for a redesign for the 2013 model year. You may not know, however, that to get ahead of the game, Toyota has been testing this 2013 model overseas (specifically, in Europe). How do we know this? Well, it seems a lucky bystander caught the new Toyota on camera.

Don't expect another single model year to go by without a redesign for the 2012 Toyota Yaris. Toyota wants you to know that there are changes coming, and they've been listening to the needs of Toyota drivers everywhere. The new 2013 Yaris subcompact has been completely reworked to better compete with other vehicles in its segment. These vehicles challenged Toyota, and it's certainly answering.

Toyota owners know that their vehicles are well-made and dependable, so it was no surprise to West Herr Toyota Scion of Williamsville when the automaker was named "Best Automotive Brand" in the 2012 Kelley Blue Book Resale Value Awards. And, to top it off, not only the brand itself was recognized; the 2012 Toyota Camry won "Best Resale Value" in its mid-size class, while the 2012 Toyota Tacoma and the 2012 Toyota FJ Cruiser were each named one of the "Top 10 Cars" of the year. The Toyota Camry also holds the honor of being the best-selling car in America for nine consecutive years and thirteen of the past fourteen years.

The Scion brand is probably best-known for its boxy, trendy style, but that will all change with the launch of the new 2013 Scion FR-S, which is pinned as "Bringing the Sport Back to the Car."¹ The storied history of the new Scion stems from a fifth generation Toyota Corolla by the name of "AE86," which was offered in model years 1985-1987. The AE86 was a combination of wieldy power and lightweight design, offering a perfect balance of the two. It was a famous off-roading and racing car for many years, and although the new FR-S doesn't share the same parts, it follows in the AE86's footsteps in terms of legacy and passion.
