Scion Fuse

[SciFion]

If Scion was selling this car right now, would you trade in your xD? >http://www.scion.com/#conceptCars_fuse
I just might, maybe if it was a Release Series version- Light the Fuse!

[gotDAMD]

Prob not. I traded a S/C tC for the D.

[TheLittleDeviant]

I hear that scion will be using a lot of styling ques from the fuse when they replace the tC... which will be sooner than most people think...

[Shaggy]

I think the concpet looks pretty bad ass, but you can never really go off the concept cars to what they will look like in production. So we will see how sweet they look when/if they go to production.

[SciFion]

If you click on the link and check out all the unique features on the car, you'll see some very cool stuff. If the car they make is fairly similar to what's shown, and a release series is available, I will more than likely line up for one!

Lois would have a fit if u got another new car before her!.

I would never trade my car in. 2 door isnt very family friendly and i love my xD

[robbiej]

I saw the Fuse up close at the Scion at South Beach event, very cool, I'd drive it, but wouldn't give up my D for it.

[SciFion]

I think I would. Like I said if it was a Release Series and had some of the stuff shown, and maybe a supercharger, a "blown fuse" :signs6: I'd be seriously tempted to trade..

[CXTKRS1]

Specs on the engine?

[SnuGG]

I'd get the RS1 if it ever came out... but we'll see.

[TheLittleDeviant]

well from what I understand, 09 will be the last year of the tC... which means the replacement car will be released in 2010 as a 2011 model...

[SciFion]

Specs on the engine?


The only thing I could gather from the video was that it would be intercooled. Makes you wonder. With fuel economy in everyones mind right now, who knows what this car will come with engine wise, or what the appearance of the car will really look like.

I think that a supercharger option would be really hot for this car, and hope that most of the interior gadgetry makes it into production. All that stuff is very futuristic!

I love concept car looks. Just wish one of these days they would make a production car look exactly like the concept car. ;)

[SciFion]

I agree. But even if they only put most of the stuff they are showing on the Fuse it will be a cool car.

[Shaggy]

Yea, that is true.

[zereaux]

i saw this car in person when i was in miami, i wasnt that impressed with it... it looks cool, but i wouldnt buy one...

[TheLittleDeviant]

no zereaux? what did you like about it? I have only seen pictures but I think its a good concept...

[Flipper]

i'm surprised they didn't borrow the front clip from the Fuse. I guess there alot of extra Magnum parts laying around

Scion Fuse: Microscopic B-pillar with C-pillar-from-hell goodness!

That's a really large blind spot, unless the car is actually smaller than a smart fourtwo, that is.

[TheLittleDeviant]

This makes me Grande!

omg.. love those pictures. *drool*

can't wait until they show up at dealers

[SciFion]

Really think they'll look that good?

[Cylon_xD]

That's with the 5-axis additions, what they were showing up at the NYC car show, not stock... bet that costs a pretty penny...

[Formulanone]

I really like most of the design, although its basic look and shapes looks like a hard-shelled tortoise, which doesn't exactly imply speed. The ginormous slab of a C-pillar is now gone, too.

However, everything below the front bumper and inlets are a little "cartoony", compared to the proportions for the rest of the car. Everything below the rear bumper looks contrived for the sake of being confusing, rather than serving any purpose.

[JDMJim]

no tC owner will buy that kit. let's be realistic. i mean, let's see how of us dropped the coin for our car....

[Luc1f3r]

if i could get teh 5 axis tC built by troy for under $30k id get another tC.

Same here... hell, if I can build this tC, I will...
