My guess would be an unorthodoxly (sp?) shaped sedan to catch the people the small hatches and coupe didn't. The truck and roaster market seem too hard to crack, though a derivative of the next gen MR2 might seem logical as a fifth model since they're gonna can the US MR2. I can't wait. :D

Think about this:
Nissan brings the tiida,nissan cube, march.Honda brings the fit, and stream. Hyundai brings the Getz. Suzuki comes out with the swift. Mitsubishi brings the colt. Scion comes out with a sedan,suv,mini van or a truck. Who do you think young people will go for? Damn sure wouldnt be Scion.

You mean bring back the Swift???

Don't take my word on this...

but i've been to Scion Focus Group session... and the engineers from Japan seem to be hinting at possible cross breed of a "mini-truck and coupe" with great gas mileage. Not your typical Tacoma truck...but rather a mini truck/SUV type ... but of course being Scion it will not be a conventional design.

Time will tell...

No idea...they just hinted if we would be interested in a mini-pickup type of vehicle. i know they have some type of design brewing for the 4th Scion...but i have to say that it will be different, but something drastic. Probably won't be a sedan or coupe... it will likely be a mini-truck / SUV type. But who knows...

Oh nooo..... my first car was a Dodge Rampage. Look it up. It's a less-ugly Suburu Brat. Now we've got the Suburu Baha as our modern "cruck". I can't imagine what kind of monstrocity Scion (or anybody really) would turn out in that direction!

I really hope it's a mini truck of some sort, awhile back Honda had a concept called
the SPROCKET. It was a cool little FWD truck car thing. I think the Roof slid back
and coverd the "bed", you know concept stuff, bu t a cool idea to me.... anyway i'd
like to see somthing like that...
