It's one from the States. Toyota has confirmed that it will not bring the Scion division to Canada, when asked why, they said that's what the Echo model line up is for.

Did I not just say that it's from the States??? And I'm assuming that when you say, "that doesn't mean that people can't bring them up here", you are talking about importing them?

Because toyboy88 said "dunno if it's the first scion in calgary???"

Man, I think you should actually read the initial post so you can get an idea of what people are asking/posting, rather than just reading the topic head, and replying to that so you can raise your post count, as if it means anything to anyone.

I saw a tonne of the Xb's when I was working in California. MOst of them were modded :nut: The car actually looks pretty good. I think you can get a T(u)RD supercharger for it.:bigpimp:

108 plus supercharger = max 140?

The tC model is going to be released next week will have a 160HP 4 Cylinder DOHC engine, and one of the planned accessories for it is a supercharger that will put out over 200.

Toyota is making a mistake by not bringing the Scion here, I think.
Do they think that the person who finds the xB to be apealing will buy the Echo?
The Echo is not an appealling car; the Scion xB is.

I saw them all over in California when I was there for a month.

I'd actually drive one if it was the type of vehicle I needed. They're huge inside.

I thought TRD made a turbo kit for the 1.5l engine. I hadn't heard of them making a supercharger kit too. The turbo kit was supposedly good for 200 fwhp under relatively low boost. I will see if i can scour up any info on it.

I thought it was a TRD Roots type blower.
