I meant the Scion version. I'm sure Subaru will end up with the big boy version of this car, which is fine, and I'm sure I won't have a problem with that one.

It does kind of bother me a little the way Toyota/Scion are trying to hype this car up, even though it's obvious it will be nothing special in the performance department, but I guess it's clear they are trying to market it to the 20-somethings so I suppose looks over performance won't matter to them.

I fixed it for you.

From a business point of view, I have no issue with the way Toyota made what Scion is today. but Toyota is doing it wrong this time.

or maybe they don't want to complete with Subaru's version ? dunno

and yep, its going to look lame when its out to the market. ppl will be like "what da f?" then Toyota/Scion will tell them "what you saw at the Auto show was a CONCEPT SUCKER"

lol lol lol
