See “Declaration,” a :60 ad for Scion’s “United by Individuality” campaign by ATTIK. The visuals wed two media cliches: a fleet of cars converging purposefully on one road, and an anarchist leader bleating to somber street warriors from a makeshift platform in the dead of night.

Also, something in the music brought Kevin Costner to mind.

Remember when Scion was nasty and unapologetic about being an individual? I miss that.
