SCION is Toyota and they've got plenty of heritage in motorsports.
From F1 to LeMans Prototypes and even NASCAR.

I'd say nowadays they're more a racing brand than Porsche is, for the most part Porsche only races in one type of racing, and in only one class within that category at that... Porsche hasn't won overall at LeMans since the late 90's. But we'll see how Porsche stacks up to lowly Toyota when their respective Hybrid LMPs hit the WEC tracks. Toyota's already a race winner in that class (which includes Audi).

I'd say Porsche is more a luxury/status symbol brands these days. Certainly if you look at the breakdown of sales with the family car Prosches taking the lion's share of production.
