Default bB Concept?

Hey all....

I came across this in my daily internet surfing:

http://www.autoindex.org/news.plt?no=1246#

Scroll down a bit to the bB Concept...and there is a pic on the right side of the page (if anyone wants to post it please do..)

I looked for this on here already but couldn't find...

Just thought you'd want to know!

I to would not mind seeing that over the t2B. I could see the lines getting a little softer for final release, but all good.

don't like the up-swept beltline. causes the back windows to become smaller then needed.

a bit too rounded and curved in at the lift gate for my tastes.

They put a Toyota emblem on the front grille instead of the bB emblem? Where's the cargo area? Ofcourse we'll have to wait for the official Feb 2006 release in Japan land. The US might not even get the new bB at all...the replacement might be based off the Avensis chassis... ala t2B concept. That looks smaller than the current bB/xB.

hmmmm comparison time


oh god...it does...NO! and I loved it so... COME ON . LOL
IMHO the only thing that makes the PT ugly is the mustache and the forward slanting roof, that is what makes it look like a Cockroach...now this...this is hot, it has fixed the downfalls of the PT, and adds flare. OKAY, the windsheild needs to be smaller, but that is all I see, I personly LOVE IT.

i think they concepted it in the wrong color. the limeish puke green is ruining it for me. plus it is a fade to redish? HURLLLLLL. anyways i don't think it looks that good. the windows tilt up and the front windshield looks like it is stretched up. i also don't like the front bumper IMO. but it could just be the color throwing me off.

I personally think that that color kicks ****, but maybe this color is more your style

from thehollywoodextra.com
Toyota has just introduced this wierd looking concept. But behind the overdone fenders, skirts etc... Is the next Xb.
It just looks like a light redesign of the present car... So even Scion is playing it safe....
Here is a shot of the production model, currently testing. You can't see much, I know.
And it does look quite a bit longer than the concept.

Who knows, maybe that's part of the camouflage as well...

They used cardboard boxes to camo a Box on Wheels? From another similar post: Are those 5-Lug Steelies on the bB? And where's the center clusters like on the current bB/xB?

I'm not feeling this new thing, personally. How can they improve on PERFECTION? They need to start over. It looks too forced, trying to make the Box hipper...

IMO, they need to go with something more along the lines of the t2b, built on the Avensis platform instead of Echo if they are worried about the "Power-Hungry"market. I'd rather see them stay with the smaller sized econo but fun types. Either that or give us a few of the half-dozen other JDM cars that could come over with few changes and be big hits.
