What a stupid comment, Alex. Scion sold about 120,000 units last year; 20,000 units over projection. The Scion tC, along with the Lexus IS and Toyota Prius, is among the top 3 vehicles with the lowest dealer turnover, meaning it spends the least time on car lots out of all vehicles sold in the United States.

Damn, I really hope it’s RWD. They already have the TC, which is FWD. Hopefully they are looking to hit a different segment.

yes shane i want it to be RWD as much as you do. With a high rev engine and a decent power and torque ratio and I’ll gladly buy one.

no ****, a Scion that competes against the V-6 Mustang with a peppy I-4. Put the Celica GT-S engine (also on the Matrix XRS and the two Lotus) on a rwd platform (cheaper IS, or cheaper Supra?). It’d be wonderful!

Haha yea prestnc

Just think man, anyone who knows anything knows that your car is a TOYOTA. To me that means unsexy, boring and practical.

practical works with me fine.

“Just think man, anyone who knows anything knows that your car is a TOYOTA.”
– yes coming from a guy that asked “who would buy a scion” when toyota is going to out sell GM.

Word, digitalzombie. I don’t like Toyota very much, but you’ve got to show a little respect. They’re about to become the worlds largest auto seller, so they have to be doing something right.

Yea they may sell alot of cars, but thats only to people who cant afford nicer cars and want practicality. How many people would take a free Toyota over a free Mercedes, none. They would buy nice cars tehy just can’t afford them

this will be one to watch out for..

Alex n Prestnc, it jus show how much insecure you guys are about the success of Toyota out selling the American made cars. Even honda are on their way n GM is now barely over with their bunkrupcy… Tell me when you do have that “free” merz aight..
