The EP3 was British designed. The first non Japanese designed Honda I believe. So it didn't really come out of Japan. And if you look at the Golf V concept... its pretty similar. Bubble and box cars seem to be the trend.

A thing about Scions that i like is that you can get it modded from the dealership. They offer lowering springs, wheels, aem cold air intakes, and such.

I kind of like them too. Too bad they only come with a 105hp engine. But they can be made into really nice show cars with lots of audio!!

I kind of like the Xb. Looks awesome to me. And it is affordable. The Xa would have to grow on me. Still, I wouldn't mind having one. Even though they have less hp than our cars.

They weight a bit less or equal to our cars and they already have tubo kits available for them.
GReddy has one for like $2,600 with a 30% increase.
Garret has one for about the same as the GReddy and has a 40% increase.

The reason that have turbo kits, the engine is used in other toyota cars, so they probably already have been working on the parts for those engines.

The scion xA looks okay, I hate the xB. It's not going to grow on me, cus' I've seen it on the road for quite awhile.

There's no way that a Scion can have 20" rims, if that what you meant. Probably like 16 or 17 would be the max.
