How does the saying go, "built by passion not committee"? I think that pretty much says it all. However, as gas prices climb this car will look more and more attractive to a larger audience of people who don't want something as bland and as boring as a Prius or Yaris.

Not a bad review really. I kind of enjoyed it. Not as a good as a test drive on the track by Randy Pobst of course.

if they don't know what underpowered is, they should drive my 120 hp (or less) Dodge Neon on the track Plus, their 0-60 time is slower because they said it themselves, they're "two fat guys in a small car" They LOVE to contradict themselves! I'd get a much better review from Top Gear, hell, even the crappy Top Gear USA!!! |

Internet forums are amusing. The back seat review alone is worth the watch, a synchronized swimming reference, and supastar... Clearly they like driving the car, and it's the first place that I've seen more than the teaser video on some of the Scion parts. At the very least for the people like myself that haven't seen the car, it's encouraging that they fit in the front.

The review wasnt bad. Seems like some people probably got their feelings hurt by criticism of the car. Just take it with a grain of salt guys.
