Default What will replace the xB2s for 2011?

Just curious because 2010 will be the 3rd year and Scion seems to replace them after that. Any ideas?

I seriously think the tC will live forever but everything else has only gotten 3 years (xB and xA). The xD and xB2 should be next I'd suppose?

I lol'd.

Maybe they'll re-badge a Tundra with an 'xT' badge.

I got a sneaking suspicion the Xb2 will be around for a while.

It better NOT be. The xB should have stayed but that's old history.
I want something to bring excitement back to the Scion name.

I partly agree. the xB should have stayed. and the xB2 should still have happened. just with a differant name... I mean... we had so many letters to choose from!

but still, i get the feeling we're looking at 5 years with this car.

The xB ran 4 years from 03-06 along with the xA, the tC has 6 years running now 05-10, xb2 and xD are on the 3rd year 08-10. The tc should be the next for a makeover and the xB2 and XD will follow. Toyota like to stay on a 5 year change, so I'm looking for this to be the last year of the tC. 2011 will bring a replacement and then 2013 will bring the xB2 re-placement/re-model.

I can see the xB2 to stay around for a 5 year run or longer. I can't see the xD staying around that long. It all comes down to numbers. I half agree with bB2NER, they need "something to bring excitement back to the Scion name." Sorry, the xB2isgoing to be around for awhile.

And Scion didnt follow it. I think the xb2 will get a 5 year run with the '11 model getting a minor front end refresh and a new model in '13. Wouldnt be financially wise for yota to have a 3 year run especially with our economy that is still on life support.

Scion is getting the IQ for 2011. Probably old news.

I honestly don't think they'll make another gen tC I think they'll just end production on it with 2010 being the final year.

Toyota will buy Nissan GTR, and rip it to xB3, and of course I will be in line for one.
