Dealers are the last to know anything. I wouldn’t listen to anything a dealer says about future unreleased vehicles. Most people at Scion Life know more about possible future vehicles then some sales guy at a dealer. Sales people know jack sh*t. Its going to be a truck “thingy” mark my words.

I dont feel like searching right now, but about a year ago I was saying "scion truck thing"

Not bad for a dealer huh? lol

And your point is? Who cares? Does it make them any lesser vehicles? Oh yeah - BTW - your tC is nothing more than a two door Toyota Avensis!

Finally another person figured it out. The tC is a copy of the European Avensis. The chasis and many of the suspension is taken from that car.
I hope they don't make me regret tuning my xB. I already regret sometimes when I see my friends tC.

lol, figured it out? scion said that from the start, it was all over press releases... They were quite proud about it since Avensis is quite nice car, indefinitly better than Camry. tC shares almost everything mechanically with Avensis...

Avensis is the same class car as Honda Accord which is sold in the US as Acura TSX...

I saw it all in a dream:

Its a Terminator 2 xB.

Governor Schwarzenegger will arrive in an xB with Hummer wheels.

and he won't stop saying "asta la vista baby" until we run over him with an 18 wheeler.

I'm betting it's the Toyota Porte...

Scion says it's a "passenger friendly interior", that's supposed to be the main feature of the Porte. If it is the Porte, that could attract the soccer mom crowd.

You may be closer to the truth than you think.

hey all, scion just sent me a link to the LIVE unveiling of the T2B. here is what it said!

Hey Scion People!

It's time to expand. This Thursday, March 24, we're going to introduce the
t2B concept car at the New York International Auto Show. We want you to
watch it live as it happens.

Be among the first in this country (and around the world) to see what our
team of designers and engineers have been busy creating. Rest assured,
we're taking style, innovation, and versatility and turning it up a few
notches. But don't just take our word for it. See it for yourself live
online on www.scion.com/live/events/events_main.html. We値l begin
broadcasting at 8.30 am EST this Thursday, March 24.

Onward,
Scion
