I doubt it's a speaker grill.

Now I know your playing, first thinking that's a Scion interior and then saying that's not a speaker grill when you can see the raised portion being a tweeter. Look and windshield reflection too.

I can't even see a ignition/keys let alone a push start button. At least you can see the speaker/tweeter grill.

Yeah I see the grill, and I really see the start/stop button. They wouldn't cover start stop button since they have to use it frequently.

Look at Toyota Avensis interior pic above. It has Start/stop button at the same location?
I don't know, I feel like tripping already.

Outlook? Not so good.
Considering the Avensis doesnt even exist in the US, I think the corolla is a more fair comparison.

Looking at that interior pic again, it's almost scary how thick that A-pillar is.

Awful forward visibility FTW... NOT!

My point is that the tC is the US/Scion version of the Toyota Avensis. I fear a similar cheapening when the Toyota Celica/FT-86 comes to the States as a Scion FR-S
