China made Xb/bB 1st Gen Copies !!
My China colleague saw my car and asked if it was made in China. I told him it was from Japan Toyota. Then he pulled out his laptop and showed me this !!

Click on the thumbnails below to see the photoslides of the car ! Its 90 % identical to my 1st Gen bB !!
I cant believe it..
It seems like its getting alot of attention in China and alot of people are interested in getting one. And the price .... 70k RMB = to appro 10k USD !!!
Its crazy !! Now everyone is going to think i am driving a Made in China car !!!

Sorry to break it to you, but there are quite a few chinese copies of cars. I think there was even a thread on this car posted a while ago. It is sad but imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

i have NOD32 antivirus, it didn't pop up anything.
that Chinese car is named "Cool Bear" LOL
It need to used octane 93 gas. That is strange.
I wonder if Toyota give them the right to make it? The window control look 100% like the tc.
