Has Anyone Seen This?
Just wondered if anyone has seen this. Is this any indication of what the next xB will look like. It looks as those someone has taken the current xB and modified the front to resemble the T2B.
Any thoughts?

it looks similar to the new toyota bB.. 
it won't be coming over to the states. scion has it's own plans on the xB replacement and official news should be coming within a few months.

SquallLHeart....That is not the new Toyota bB. Check out the Japanese website. This mutt doesn't look like the new bB at all.

Compare this pic to the previous pic on hollywood blogspot.

If you read a little bit on what the site said about the photos, these are Chinese knock-offs. That is what the Chinese are notorious for. They take a product, steal the design, and manufacture cheap knock offs. Most times finding savings with methods that reduce vehicle safety.

I understand that's it's a Chinese knock-off... But what front bumper did they knock-off?? It's not the new bB. It looks more like a finished version of the t2B concept. Maybe the chinese know something we don't know...
Hell, we could very well be looking at the final front-end look of the new xB. Maybe the Chinese have seen it and just copied it before the official debut.

It would be funny if someone bought this front end from Taiwan or something and put it on his xB then simply posted it on the net. Then people come along who guess "Chinese Knock-off, Chinese Knock-off."

i think the Yaris front end on the xA looks nice, however I am very worried that the new xB is going to look like that pic. I question this because where did they get a t2b front end if it isnt even into production yet??? Thats what troubles me. If it does end up being that pic i think it will hurt Scion's sales on the new xB cuz that looks bad imo...
