The brakes, on the other hand are idiotic and totally impractical. If this were an open-wheel car the design would have some interesting potential, but ask yourself this, how do you get the wheel off?

Centerlock wheels are great for changing wheels/tires quickly, but they're just asinine when you have to spend half an hour tearing down your car to take a wheel off. When i first heard "motorcycle style brakes" I got all excited about floating rotors, and then I see that ridiculous BS. I hate Scion.

Don't worry. The production version will have something from the Toyota/Subaru parts bin.
