If there is one thing Scion has taught us, it is that "boxy" done properly sells vehicles. If there is one thing we have learned from "modern" design trends, it is that that which was old is new again. Retro styling is becoming a more and more popular trend, though it has produced shamefully few vehicles that do nothing better than a disservice to their truly vintage counterparts.

But where others have failed, Scion shall succeed, by reintroducing a classic Toyota model redesigned and rebadged for their vehicle lineup. The Scion lC, a reincarnation of the classic Toyota Land Cruiser, projecting an image of being purpose built for off-road travel, unlike the more understated and welcoming look of today's Land Cruiser, while incorporating a subtle modern aggressiveness not found in the Land Cruisers of old.

Ladies and gentlemen, I am pleased to introduce the all new Scion lC:



4 wheel drive is standard.
The vehicle is powered by a 3.4L V6 engine (with TRD supercharger an available dealer option).
Base MSRP for a standard 6-speed manual (that's right, 6 speed!) will scrape just below the 20k mark at $19,900.
Expect other dealer available options such as roof racks, tow hitches, upgraded TRD suspension, as well the usual array of Scion options.

Introducing the Scion xS ...

At last! The predecessor to the MR2 Spyder has arrived! Using a more structurally
advanced version of the MKIII Toyota MR2 chassis, the enlogated hood sweeps into
the body with enlarged side air intakes that draws upon images of the more expensive
big brother, the Lotus Elise...

Performance: 190hp 1.8L 2ZZ, mid-engine rear, wheel drive.
Transmission: 6 speed manual (with optional sequential manual transmission)
Standard Features: One touch up/down power windows, power locks,
Scion Sound Processing 6-speaker MP3 stereo system, HID projectors,
4 wheel disc brakes with ABS and VSC, standard 17" alloy wheels and
Recaro racing seats... unfortunately, there will be no sunroof.

I think I need to refine it a little, Like add brakes and a drivetrain, and a sidecar that a human can fit into... tell me what you think.

Anyways... I just threw it together tonight, but it needs a lot of work..
Maybe a big spoiler... more aggressive fenders... some neon windshield wiper nozzles...
looks nice but i dont think us spyder owners would want vsc or traction control it would take away the fun of driving

Scion is not myopic in its vision. Everyone can create a sports car. Few can create a sports VAN. Introducing the sV, with the functionality only a minivan can provide coupled with aggressive styling that casts to the wind their inherently boring nature. With the sV, Scion introduces the minivan to the youth market, and the older among us who need the space, don't want a gas guzzler, but are not yet ready to accept the image of being seen in the typical minivan.

Based on the platform of the Toyota Sienna, the sV includes many innovative features (aside from just the unique styling).

The sV is actually a 2 door minivan. Both left and right doors are sliding doors. But due to their sheer length, Scion created doors that slide straight UP. A button on the interior (or the key fob) shuts the doors electronically (the mechanism including a fail safe device to prevent closure on individuals or objects). The hatch is also electronically closed in this manner.

While seats that fold flat into the floor are a great idea for convenient extra storage space, Scion went a step further. Not only do the seats fold into the floor, but both rows of rear seats contain a specially engineered frame that allow the seatbacks themselves to open and be used as storage space.

Rather than the typical individual buckets, the front seats can be made into a bench seat, with a removable connecting peice. This allows for a maximum capacity of 8 passengers.

The standard engine option is the 2.4L inline 4cylinder powering the tC. Available as an option is the 3.4L v6 powering the Scion lC.

Front wheel drive is standard, with AWD an option. The AWD package features push button locking of either the front or rear wheels, allowing front wheel drive or rear wheel drive only.

As with the lC, with the v6 engine option, a TRD supercharger is offered as a dealer option as well.

As an added bonus, while pricey, TRD offers a sport tuned suspension option with adjustable ride height and a stiffer chassis, making the sV even MORE of a sport van.

Base MSRP for the 4 cyl, fwd model is $17,700. Expect upwards of $24,000 for the TRD version with V6, supercharger and suspension package.

Presenting, the Scion sV:

It's a good idea, but with the doors, no parking garages for you!

I don't think I accurately described the picture I had in my mind........they would slide up and curve over the roof of the vehicle (overlapping each other if need be to avoid smashing into one another). Makes me wonder why I said "straight up".....I think the "straight" was just to put emphasis on the "up." Not a well thought out choice of words.

But......at any rate........who cares..........cause it's not a real car.

Default 2006 Scion xT

Scion proudly introduces the 2006 Scion xT, a two door sport truck. Combining the newest technology, and blending retro
styling clues with a fresh look, the xT is certainly not a vehicle which will get "lost in the crowd." Standard features are
plentiful and the options are endless. Some of the standard features include:
*3.2L VVT-i2
*Sport-tuned lowered suspension
*Front bucket racing seats
*Automatic transmission with iShift and paddle shifting
*HID headlamps
*LED taillamps

Is that a 3D model? What software did you use? I don't want to know what amount of time you put into this.

Yes Max, I used Pro Engineer 2001 and created all the parts and then assembled them. I used a basic rendering package within Pro/E to get the shadows and reflections on the last image. In fact, the last image is actually a screen capture within Pro/E so you can see the part tree to the left of the image. Time.... I will not even go there...
