so you guys forgot to relocate the side mirrors when you flipped that top around, eh?



ehh.. i rather like the fact the glass wraps around in the back. i can only imagine the rearward view.

Wow doing that with the A-pilar I actually like it. But yeah, when I saw the rear glass, first thing I though of was the Cube.

I think this thing has potential if they totally rework the roof and windows.

I'm with namelessAK and 808-213-503. The production version is most likely going to have that little slant for the front windshield.

If the glass did wrap around in the back, it would never reach production. Instant death in a roll-over. There will never be a true panoramic view.

they can have the glass look like it wraps around from the outside, but there will always be a pillar there of somesort.

I see a slight resemblance here...

I think the hako with the angled windshield like above is what the gen 2 xB should have been, it would have been much more cutting edge.

That reverse top makes it look like the xB and more so, the Kia Soul.

Better, but the top still sits too high.

I loved the xB and sorta like the xB2 (too SUV-like for me).

Toaster on wheels > the most retarded looking thing on wheels.

1st reaction: OMG!!!!
2nd reaction: The Hako is so ugly and different to the point it reminds of my first reaction to the original xB. Please build it...

This design isn't actually new. Toyota and other manufacturers in the 30's made similar cars. The Hako needs running boards!! 30's Gangster style FTW!!

Toyota's version was the Toyota AA




This is the AB Phaeton (coupe/convertible version)


Model AC

I understand that Scion wants to keep its edge...but they are trying way to hard......They could easily rebadge some Daihatsu's and make a killing in sales.....Ive said it before...bring a Copen and It would sell its **** off
