The Toyota iQ will be making it onto American shores in the form of a Scion. A concept version of the Scion-badged car was shown at the New York International Auto Show 2009 this week. But it was no regular iQ – it was slapped on a bodykit penned by a Californian company called Five Axis, giving it an aggressive wide-body look. But looks are all the aggression the 3+1 seater is going to get as under the hood is only a 93 horsepower 1.3 litre VVT-i engine driving the front wheels. But it does get TEIN Super Street coilovers and 18 inch wheels wrapped with Yokohama S.drive tyres.

just ask p2, why their mofo wouldn't want to market it here.
Normally l prefer a HONDA but this iQ whether in Toyota or SCION badge doesn't matter (or even a Pero2) l really love it. A way brilliant than a Smart.
man this is one cartoony car. Huge 18" wheels on a tiny 1.3litre car? I prefer something more proportional. The old Renault Clio is a good example of balance size wheels with the size of car.
I don't necessary think that big wheels means COOL looks.

Don't worry..
it's a Toyota trademark :
"Look so so and underpowered car".
They should dump 1.6 – 1.8 under the hood.
but it's ok with 1.3 if the price is below RM30K with perodua badge.
almost toy like?!! like hot wheels car….
menarik tertarik memang da boommmm!
surely after this a lot of myvi owners will convert to this iQ bodykit.
mcm myvi bikin je…ade sket kot.
I dislike the colour. OK, but then 3 seats, will not make its way to malaysia anytime soon. This clearly for china or westerners with their 1 child

OK.. or RM20K with 850cc engine with p2 badge.
Cantik… 1.3 turbo may suitable for this car
It's also 5-star Euro NCAP rated. Nice city car.
Look underpowered car? don't think so.. maybe for this car, they have adjusted the gear ratio
it's better than smart for 2 because it has extra a seat ^^
I think the bodykits suit the car perfectly. Myvi owners can start opting for this kind of mod too.
Funny, all kind of comments by merely look at the photos!
it will be useless when u drive over speed bumps in malaysia ..
super ah beng car
myvi 2drs soupup
