So out of shere boredom I Googled "Scion AND DL" and came up with this

http://www.scion.com/live/features/on_the_dl.html

wouldn't it hilarious if this whole thing is a rumor started because someone overheard and misinterpreted a converation...

dL means down low

the new scion will probably be xD or something like it

I'm sure they are going to make a sedan...

Also, I'm glad to see another Masuimi Max fan :twisted:

Nice little vid with the Roots 8), and yes the XB is Afro friendly because I rock a Fro every now and then :D .

well why did they name the tC, tC and not xC

Volvo holds the trademark to "XC"

volvo has the xC trade park yo... although now that I look I see the guy b4 me posted it =(

x for gen x... crazy/cool/new/fresh... t for typical... just kidding no flames please =D

x for gen x... crazy/cool/new/fresh... t for typical... just kidding no flames please =D

Yeah... xA = "Automobile", xB = "Box", tC = "Touring Coupe"? :lol:

Just messin ;)

so if there is NO SUCH plan for the dL or a new car for a few years...why do we still need this topic "Scion dL"

i say trash it, if there is no real truth

no truth whatsoever. . . it's all wishful thinking. . . if there really were a planned vehicle, Toyota would not let us know about it until they WANTED to let us know about it. Toyota Motor Corp is one of the best at not letting secrets out. . .

x for gen x... crazy/cool/new/fresh... t for typical... just kidding no flames please =D

cybergypsy is that you? ;)

ha, all I know is peeps talked trash when Darren broke news about other cars, like the xA RS1, but he was right on the money when the info came out everywhere.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt on this one, too. To me, he's as credible as anyone on this thread... :wink:

yall are all wrong. the xB and the xA are named "x" because they have the engine they do, the tC was named "t" because of its engine. it has to do with the type of engine it is, i'm not 100% sure but the x is fuel efficient and the t is touring. I hope you can all figure out the A B and C part of the name

do you really think she would hold back that much and say "just kidding" about a tC knock..... :-p

when the pimps in the crib mon,
drop it likes hoooot!
drop it likes hoooot!
drop it likes hoooot!

o sry :lol:

they have to make another vehicle the xB is almost 3 years old and all the car companies are bringing out youth style cars and those cars will be new news and Scions will be old news if they dont bring out a new ride and they lose the market they are trying to compete for.

Well, that may be true, but even if Scion wanted to name it xC, Ford/Volvo would sue them.

Ok well The XB is called the bB in japan, wich originally was a nick name because the only color you could get them in ( back in the day 8 years ago, and yes they have ben out for 8 jears in japan) was black , hens it quickly got the name the black box. Now in america under a digerent name of scion, they get the label of the xB, or X Box, for extreme box. I have no idea about the XA which is the IST in japan, so thats a mystery, THe tC doesis brand new in japan, as in the us, so its also up in the air, but tC could very well stand for touring coup. The dL may just be a rumor, or it may have been twisted, version of the truth, in that toyota is suposed to release the Toyota Vitz in the states late 2005, or early 2006. this is probbabbly what the confusion is about. But leakin secrets from toyota is a carefully planed occurenc, it is done to get the car enthusists hyped about some thing new, so when they do finally release something, everyone will want one, or go and get one. Hense boosting sales, and making mad loot, I mean after all thats what corporations are all about, Making Money.

No, the bB Has only been out for 4 3/4 years. They released the car in Japan in February of 2000... I was there dude. My wife's friend Motoko bought one, the first delivered to the Yokosuka area.. I was so Jealous, I told myself that if they ever released anything like that once I got back to the states, I would get it...

and you did :D

and you did :D

Atsugi... that's really cool.... are you originally from daytona? I'm from Debary/deltona area. I'm getting ready to transfer to Oceana here in a month... wow... small world, huh?

oceana in VA?

oceana in VA?
Yep... I'll be going on leave the middle of next month, and then reporting the middle of January... any scion clubs/events out there?

I think thats around where our chapter of SE is. let me check it out.

There will be no more x-cars, all new SCION's will start with "t", the next one's being the tD and tE. :wink:

Though the Celica and MR2 Spyder are being discontinued in the US, they are being replaced for the rest of the world. A new Corolla coupe will replace the Celica over at Toyota, but don't be surprised to see the global Celica and MR2 replacements badged as SCION's.

where are you getting this information from? is it a credible source? if you have any links to press releases, do tell. otherwise ur just adding fuel to the fire and a bunch of angry scionlife goers will flame you. lol
i kid, but seriously, where did you hear this? its an interesting thought. the only thing that bugs me is if they really make all their cars t* ... then all the future vehicles would be "touring" types which would be odd for a company to do.

I think thats what he thinks-I don't thinkt there will be more "X" cars, but I don't think the rest of them will either, the first letter is suppose to be the engine type, and I don't think all the new models will have the same engine, plus wouldn't it be stupid to have a line up that looked like

xA xB tC tD tE tF tG

pP is cool

DL??

The tC DOES NOT EXIST in Japan... it is made in Japan for the US market only. It was going to be the xC but Volvo owns XC for their "Cross Country" brand vehicles. I don't agree with the way you have the xA & xB naming laid out.

its a sign
