i see some people posting the word "youth" and i feel that "youth" is a tough word to define and even tougher to translate into what the next scion will be since everyone has a different opinion of what vehicle would be a good "youth" vehicle.
honestly... i think scion spread this rumor to stir up some controversy and see what the majority of the public wants via forums like these and stuff. sort of like let the people build a car but we wont pay them... ya know?
just my .o2

well, i'd have to think that the car is already either in R&D, or they know which car they're bringing over. because, when scion first came out in california, they said a new model every year. so, if they're bringing something out for next year, it would have to be pretty far along in the process.

They need to make a car to compete with the smart roadster even though it's not here YET.

My guess would be that Scion wouldn't market the Vitz models as a Scion. Mainly because in Canada, the 3 and 5 door Vitz's are sold as Echos (why we can't get them, I don't understand, becuase I personally really like the 3 door Vitz.) But with our northern neighbors having the Vitz as an Echo, I would figure Toyota wouldn't want to

I have actually heard that since the tacoma has been sized up a bit for 2005, the return on the classic toyota mini may come in the form of a scion.

my guess is they are going to put out something around the 18k mark...
but i did hear that they are going to put out something really fast...
The wish's rear 1/4 panel/window area resembles the vibe strongly... it might be the same platform... maybe they will rerelase the matrix with new body styling in the form of a scion with a 2zz motor.. =D

ok so maybe I was wrong about the corolla verso thing :oops:
2006 Toyota Corolla Verso4
Folks at Toyota see a hole in their lineup between the Matrix and the RAV4. So they will bring a version of the Corolla Verso4, already on sale in Japan and Europe, here to plug that gap. Intended to compete with the Subaru Forester, the Verso4 will have all-wheel drive, and power from either the Corolla's 130-hp 1.8-liter 4-cylinder or the 161-hp 2.4-liter Four found in the RAV4. A hybrid model using the drivetrain from the Prius is another possibility.
