Is that a real picture or a rendering? If a real picture the quality is horrendous.

"best possible power-to-weight ratio". The lighter the better. I wouldn't mind if the interior is like a Lotus Elise. It should also come with a pack of Slim Fast for those that needs it.

I'd expect bucket seats to be standard on a car like this.
This is great news for our fans over in Europe....would LOVE to see Scion reconfirm these facts (mainly LSD) for the U.S. market. |
