man, good looking out, but seriously, we've been over this... the bB isn't coming to the US according to very solid sources, and those that participated n the focus groups to review the usdm 08 xB replacement.

it's all over this forum, bud.

my hunch is that it is going to look like this:




but that is just pure speculation from what I've heard and the spy shot's i've seen.

i just hope scion and the folks at toyota dont drop teh ball with the redesign. the rav4 and camry redesigns have been successful, i hope the same of the upcoming xB and xD.

bringing that chinese knockoff to america would be considered a dropping of the ball, lol

loooks like a cross between the scion xb and the chevrolet hhr, which isn't a bad thing, i think it looks pretty awesome. if i ever need an affordable car for mass transit, i'd get one!

We're most definitely NOT getting the GWM CoolBear (the green "xB" above). I don't want the Chinese xB either. And I don't want the bB either and besides a lot of sources have pointed to no on getting it. Hurry Toyota, bring us the new xB already!! Did I see turn signals in the mirrors in the spy shot above??

Regardless of what anybody "knows" or thinks I'm personally hoping they bring the current bB body style over...I love it and would seriously consider trading in the RS3 for one.

why is AWD only available on the IS250 and not the 350? (not to mention the MT as well).

i'm just being hopeful. i'm sure some of the dealership guys do know...and it's annoying does toyota require top secret security clearences to work there or what? lol

unfortunately not... but most dealerships are even held in the dark.. actually all of them in this case.

anyone who may remotely know are higher ups.. as in regional reps or something.

toyota has taken alot of measures to make sure nothing leaks out. including the new truck thay have planned.
