The stereo looks decent...the speakers on top of the lid were great...but having an oversized tv (which is pointless in my ming even for CES, and it looks like some of those POS cars you see at shows who got sponsored and just put whatever free ____ into their car whithout thinking of the final product) flow into some dinky looking basic box is kind of sorry compared to the final product of the xB.
you think a 43" plasma is useless in a car? then you havent been to ces. Have you seen a fully wrapped hotel boasting a 76" plasma? Then go into a show and see a 80" Plasma? If you didnt notice, the function in getting the monitor up took some engineer, not some kid installing a plasma with double sided tape.

You're doing a lot more interior right? The dash is so plain and needs more color or atleast a nice wrap.
Its wrapped in suede, what more do you want? A statue of Mary?

While props are due for having one of the first semi-built showcar tC's
It has turbo, interior, audio, exterior, wheels, bbk, suspension. What is so semi about that? thats more then 99.8% of the Scions running around right now. Even top show winners.

Joe...You must of woken up on the wrong side of the bed. sorry
The body kit is ill, but aren't the wheel wells a little too close to the tires LOL.
Whats wrong with trying to fill up the wheel well?


The aero kit is all function. Im sure people well have a different opionion once they see it in person.

The craftsmanship is like no other. I can understand if it was a kit pieced together and there was gaps all over the place, but this car is pure art, pure craftsmanship, and sheer talent.

Troy, is there a better close up of the front where the splitter is held up? There's a bit of plexi covering some fogs and I just wanted a closer look. Also, what is the hole in the front? Is that for your tow hook attachment?

Everyone is entitled to an opinion... even if the delivery is a little rough! What's that saying about a bad apple... well from what I see, this bunch of Scion enthusiasts haven't let a few harsh words ruin their day. Hell it made me and my crew laugh our asses off :D

a few people have mentioned this.... how bout we put some fur around it then would you ask? it was intended to be a duct for a cold air intake... let's just leave it at that for now....

just keep going to work and you'll see



so.... if a fixed up scion is considered "rice"
what do you call a tricked out benz? "kraut"?
how bout a chevy "potato"?
lowrider chevy "potatoes and beans"?
ferrari? "pasta"? 800hp ferrari "spaghetti and meatballs"?

I think it's gorgeous for a showcar. A bit extreme for my tastes as a daily driver.. but well built I must say. I have to admit I got a bit wet at first glance :oops:

riced up Germans are called sauerkrauts =)
riced up Americans are called fries =)

That said, build quality is definitely professional. The design, although relatively clean, it's not to my liking, particularly with the different color ricey civic rear bumper.

I prefer something sporty, but not ricey, like these aftermarkets:

i agree with the people who aren't liking it. i like the concept sketch a lot. but it doesn't seem as nicely excecuted. although i must say, it probably looks a lot better in person than in pictures. especially the bright green/carbon fiber thing.

umm....bile colored!!...not a big fan of the color and all the poop hanging from the bumbers. I like the clean look. Nice job on the wide body and interior. I really like the rims. I'd really like to see a low profile hood scoop.
