You know the interior doesn't look different, what really bothers me are the AC dials...like seriously would it have cost that much to have it digital without the dual climate instead of putting oversized knobs to fill the hole?

I like it! If I wanted push button start and fancy radio and automatic climate control. Ill be buying a G25 or something, but since I want a cheap simple new car that I can have fun in? This is it! Now what I think is funny is how they say '' results in an impressive 200 horsepower and 151 pound-feet of torque.
'' LOL I mean I am ok with those numbers, but don't tell me the numbers are impressive. LOL

Hopefully maybe they will offer a "tech" package that will upgrade the interior a little. Better head unit, push button, nicer HVAC, HIDs, etc. That interior looks like a Corolla rental car.

For crying out loud, have some of you never even seen an AE86.

The only thing that must stay true... is that if this car is going to look cheap...

IT NEEDS TO BE CHEAP!

The simplicity of it is very appealing to me though.
But cheap (price) does not mean that it needs to look cheap.

Does the Sicon people lives on another planet? They know that we can see all what the reset of the world had. Now I know why I cannot get over the fact they made it a Sicon in the first place.

I say we draft up a petition for those digital climate control to come as an option. It would kill 2 birds with one stone, hard core track people can have a cheap and low cost car, and every day drivers can have one with nice looking interior and dual climate control with heated seats. Oh and that sliverish black tachometer is really bad looking too.

My point is that if it's cheap enough, cheap is acceptable. If you catch the drift... haha




We do not yet know the price.

This, almost all Scion owners would have no problem buying a Toyota...doesn't quite work so well in reverse.

Ugh, it looks like the BRZ is taking the cake now. The Scion's interior looks so ridiculous that I cant stand seeing it like that. The price better be like 20-21k if they really want to my money.

Or tip swap. The closeups of the JDM just looks like a tip added to the exhaust
