there's more than one car. you happen to only see in it in germany and socal but there's a prototype testing in very cold weather where there are no spy photographers and in japan. the reason your seeing it in a socal freeway was for engine temp data gathering in severe stop and go driving. you will see more spy photos when we bring it to the desert.

all these spy photos your seeing is because these are no longer mules but close to pre-production to test for problems that we didn't see. all data recorded will be severly analyzed way before it goes into any production car.

also, to answer questions who is doing most of the testing, just look at what cars are around the test, even down to the plates they're using. i'm seeing the ring pictures just like you and those plates look very familiar. we don't have email or phone access to the testers there but they're doing the same thing were doing stateside but a lot more fun. the socal plates you saw like i said before are toyota motor distributor plates not subaru.

toyota is being very shy about how much work they're doing, which is a lot. they've built a great car that just need a few things which they have in my reports.
Why not? It's more fun when they do the test at the ring, but you guys have to do in a stuck traffic.
I only wish the final production car head/taillight will look different that the rounded ones now.
Aren't you guys testing hot version of the car like guys at the ring do? Or Scion really doesn't get one?
