IMO, the reason sales are plunging is because this car is almost 30k+ for most people, and if you're trying to target the youth niche--most don't have 30k+ to spend on a car.

If they sold it as a barebones for 18-22k, I think sales would be much, much better.
While I agree that they would hit a better market in the low 20's, 25k isn't 30k for the scion people. 25k seems reasonable for the car, just wont get many kids cause the tC and xD's are cheaper.
