WTF

Whatever

wtf!!!

Let the flaming begin!

oh and Outback is a subaru, Out back are the LED’s.

someone should really get fired for allowing this garbage to make it this far

This thing is awful.

And I don’t see how its completely upright windshield would work, aerodynamically.

Scion’s losing its way.

and id rather drive that armoured truck you talk about lln.

WTF?????????
this is why i believe Scion should stop making cars.
good to know they care about aerodynamics.

an interesting design excercise, I only pray it is just that, I would hate to have to look at this on the road.

If Scion ever had it, it just lost it

Have they actually gotten the feedback of any young people. I’ll take the liberty of calling myself young, and I’ll also take the liberty to say that neither me nor anyone I know thinks that design is the least bit appealing. When that boxy Honda Element first came out, I thought auto design couldn’t go lower. Well, it just did, with a windshield perpendicular to the road, sure to improve aerodynamics and gas mileage.

HAHAHAHAH ROFL!!!! OMFG! This piece of **** just made my day! LMFAOOOOOO!

Hmmmm I dont know??? I kinda like it?? It look like a very modern take on the 1930’s Ford street rod. Maby???

Looks like a ****in JUKEBOX! EWWWW! If there is anyone in the world who’s interested in this car, park a cardboard box for a refrigerator on top of an 08 Power Wheels Jeep Wrangler and save the money!

Ya Richt62 I was going to mention the old school street rod styling cues but it seemed out of line considering that this looks more like a 1930’s street rod redesigned for 2010 by Elton John.

*head asplode*

:) CHECK THIS OUT!!!!!!! :)

click ‘yes’ if there is a pop-up

WFT is that?

…i kinda like it…interesting risky design for sure. its like the Japanes looked to American design. that front widshield reminds me of a model T. The fenders are like 30’s American, or PT cruiser like….it is interesting in a wierd way.

this car is a piece of old, smelly elephant ****. the seats look like a bench on an old, crappy roller coaster. I hope this plastic box never makes its way over to the US.

BAD job scion

Looks like my can of WHUPPASS came in!
Yeah baby!
DrFill

I agree with you all but it looks a lot better than a Prius ever did or ever will.

YIKES! If this is any indication of the future design direction for the Scion brand, I fully expect them to continue their journey spiraling down the drain.

The tC is the only Scion product that I see out on the road on a regular basis. It’s also the only Scion product that I see piloted by members of Scion’s desired youth demographic. It seems to me as though Scion would get a clue and design more products based on the tC’s desirable traits. The tC is reasonably priced, offers some utility (hatchback configuration), and is sort of sporty-looking (for a Toyota product). Maybe they should offer more sporty-looking variants on the tC’s platform to complement the one winner Scion has in its portfolio. A sporty compact sedan (or 5-door that looks like a sporty sedan), crossover, and SUT built on the tC/Avensis platform might help Scion regain its momentum in the market. Another modified box on wheels is not the answer.

Relax, it’s just a concept….

It’s not a horrid concept imho. Basically, it looks like they did a modern “scion” interpretation of a ‘33 chevy sedan.

HAHA

This is grosser than watching LP felch a goat.

Too far to one side of the line towards just weird.!

The Windshield kills the whole deal. Fix it. Give it some slope or curvature to match the rest of the machine and I think it’ll work.

Otherwise, this is a decent concept, but still a lousy idea.

From the ground to the window level, it looked promising, then I looked at the whole thing, & I haven’t been able to stop laughing. That thing is FUGLY!!

I say let them build it and watch the sales of Scion crash and burn. What dumb ****s thought of this piece of crap? I’d rather walk than being seen in one of these whatever you call it thing.

I think this is cool, you boneheads are too old to appreciate this design.

LMAO…yet another monstrosity coming from Toy Ota.

I also second the comment about it having street rod cues. I actually like the front, I think that’s pretty neat but, how is this a coupe? Do they plan on basing it on a sedan model? And even so, it’s more of a station wagon/compact wagon/box than anything else, not much of a coupe if you ask me.

I don’t think the design is all that great, not because of the odd angles but nothing seems to go together well. Retro front, but the rest of the design is a box. And the interior I understand is supposed to be simple, but the rear seats look very uncomfortable, and even more worrying is that bit of metal sticking out each side of the seat. It just looks very cheap.

Don’t get me wrong, I like a lot of Scions designs and I love the tC, but is it just me or does it seem Toyota’s striving to create new categories from thin air? First the Venza, whatever they labeled that (a crossover sedan, something silly like that), then their recent truck concept, and now this.

Itr couldnt look any worse if Kia made it……..and I thought an Aztec looked like ****.

Wait this is a car? Oh right it’s a SCION! Sorry I thought this was like a hot wheels car or something.

No lie:
My 3 y.o. son just looked at the pictures and said “Daddy, is that a toy car?” I think that says it all…

the guy in the top row, last picture, the Scion spokesman, looks like he’s confused,too!

We have a 05 tC… nice car, indeed.
This? No.
Never.
I liked to one concept they showed a year ago… a lot better than this. It had some promise.
This?
I honestly hope they aren’t serious. tC is on 4th year right now. The xB and xA were replaced at around the end of the 4th model year.
They might seriously use this thing.

I hope not, or I will have to wait and see how the Astra 3 door does, long term, over the next year(it costs more, but if it holds up well, would be worth it, vs this horrible looking travesty of a pathetic joke).

No wonder Toyota/Scion sales ae down nearly 2% vs 07.

This is just stupid.

It’s Smaller(in overall length) than the xD!
It makes the xD looks handsome!
That’s not a good thing.

I’d rather them make an updated looking AMC Pacer, than this.

I am embarrassed for them

I’ve been reading for a long time and never commented, but now I MUST say that this thing is hideous. I represent Scion’s prime market (20-something college student) and mildly liked the xA and xB and really like the tC, but this… it’s horrible! You would have to pay me to drive this thing. I’ve looked at all the pictures to see if I’m missing something, but unless if I still am, this will be the industry’s biggest flop ever. All I can think of is a walrus. And that is no compliment.

Did anybody bother to put that in a windtunnel?

I wonder if this is why Jim Press left Toyota for Chrysler last year?
I wonder if they really(now) Want the Scion Brand to fail in the USA? Seems so. Sales aren’t what they used to be.

The Kia Soul looks excellent in comparision.

The look on the spokesman face says it all “In college I did inhale, I had a bad trip once or twice, woke up to this….”

WOW, and not in a good way. Let’s hope all the designers read the comments on this blog, and extract themselves from the gene pool.

What a friggin CARTOON. If this is cool to anyone - they are too young to get a damn drivers license.
Stay off the streets and out of your stolen cars.

I just remembered: Isn’t Chrysler coming out(supposedly) in 1-2 years, with a Chery-built “Hornet”(similar idea, but better looking) 151-152 inches long, 170HP(something like that)?
If so, this is most likely Scion’s “answer” to it.
The Corolla with tC engine..that’s probably it for “sporty fwd Toyota-Scion”(why?).
The tC is nice. When it’s done…guess if we want 3 doors/fwd… under 20K msrp….there’s the Astra(or wait for the next generation, should be here when I am ready to buy).

I actually kind of like it. Yes, the upright windshield is a bit odd in today’s hyper-aerodynamic world, but think how nice it’d be to look through from the inside. And I like the stance, so of like a bulldog in a crouch. I sort of see hints of old-school street rods in it, just as some of you do. I also like the ridge that goes around the edge of the roof; I don’t know how practical it’d be for production, or to live with, but I think it looks kind of cool.

By the way—for all you young’uns who think that “old” people will never like new ideas, I’m 52.

I think if the windshield had any sort of rake to it, it might be pretty cool looking. As it sits now, it seems like its 2 different cars fused together.

What in the unholy name of…Looks like their bastardizing classic domestic hotrod lines on that tin can soy hauler. I’m calling blasphemy!

LED Headlamps? Yeah right. Good so that those losers can’t put in HID lamps, bad cause they cost $$$. Never will make it to production.

Damn, wish I can get paid to send Sigh ON to the ground!

I HATE it. It induces rage in me. Why the hell do these stupid new designers think it has to be Ugly to be “Hip”
I feel the entire car design world has been heading in that direction since the BMW 7 series debuted. Design something so awful it’s controversial enough to need to be copied, and eventually everybody gets used to it and convinces themselves they like it. This isn’t the way car design should be.

Ah well, I can’t say I expect much from Toyota. They make the ugliest cars in the industry.

Up yours Toyota!

I think all that beauty will cost around $30000
LOL

“WTF” is the first word that came to me, too.

Was anyone hurt in this accident?

W…T…F…

Is this a joke??!? ****ing orange aquarium on the wheels.

who green lighted this concept it’s embaressing

I like it alot. It’s got some real potential. About the greenhouse…remember the Dodge Hemi concept which hinted at the direction that became the Magnum/Charger? The concept had a 50’s-style windshield, but the production cars were more mainstream. With a traditional layout, this thing would be pretty bitchin’. Even as it is today, though, I’d still straight-up take it over the current Xb, which I feel has virtually no appeal at all and is a very embarrassing replacement for the cool little Xb it replaced. With the current Xb, Scion messed with the winning formula-no wonder their sales are slipping.

Somebody hit a Ford Deuce soupe w/fugly stick for a year straight.

I just puked in my mouth.

i like the idea but final model looks like crap.

I love it!

umm…

Just like your Uncle who still uses the terms RAD! and FRESH!, Scion is trying too hard to reconnect with youth market. They’ve gone from original to obnoxious. The only one still worth buying is the tC, the only Scion car that hasn’t been updated yet. At the rate they’re going, Scion will be shut down by 2011 due to a lack of sales.

My GOD this is ugly!!!

Ease up people. It’s a modern interpretation of a 1930 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan. Look it up. I think it’s way cool.

“Its way cool”?? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…….

which way is it going?
