I could be way off on this, but based on the price that they just released, one of a few things are true:

1. I'm right...or...
2. Scion believes that thier current target demographic is both young and stupid, because they will go into more debt to get this car.
3. Affordable was a marketing buzz word to keep your interest, but the reality is they could not turn the profit they wanted selling it for 23K.
I think #1 and #2 for you is a good guess. Lol

And if I remember they did say they were just going to barely break even.
