The looks are definitely different...but I could see it fitting in quite well overseas. Over here, not a chance...

Although the amount of room in that thing is pretty nice, especially with how far back the passenger can push the seat. It'd be a fun car for a trip or something.

No, that would be Mitsubishi :p

That being said, Scion has been an OVERWHELMING success :D

Nope that would be pontiac!!

The first series of pictures looks terrible..the shot with the ground effects kit does improve the look some though..

tC for me though.

Come on NFS4, you know the only reason who aren't agreeing that the Scion lineup would be even ore hideous with the addition of this car (excluding the tC) is because you are a Toyota whore. Give it up.

When are they going to learn that gauges not directly in front of the driver are awful? I don't care if they want to save manufacturing costs by only needing to change the steering wheel from one side to the other... center guauges SUCK!!! :(


And that monstosity is just disgustingly hideous. Nasty.

I'm a VW bus fan too, but the appeal of the xB has thus far eluded me. Of course, I prefer splitties, which are a bit less boxy than bays...
This thing just looks like a slightly less ugly xB.

The sliding doors = awesome idea.
Interior is pretty nice except for the steering wheel.
Exterior is alright, car looks too tall.

It looked better with square edges.

That's like saying Rosie O'Donnell looked better with her old haircut.

I'm not arguing there. I've always been a Toyota whore. You'd be stupid to argue otherwise;)
