bB is a SWEET car (love it or hate it design). I hope bB will start a K-Car revolution here in the states, and eventually having others following in, with cars like StepWagon, WagonR, and Cube.

I checked out a Bb while I was in HK and it was definitely a cool little k-car to zip around town. In regards to power, it only has a 1.3 litre that outputs merely 100hp +or- I think so I am not sure what toyota is planning to drop into this "scion" when it hits our shore next year....perhaps, does anyone have the spec?

I hope they offer it with the Matrix XRS motor (1.8 liter with 180HP)...now that would be cool!

Did you guys see the "inhouse aftermarket" items they're going to sell? Exhaust, HEADERS, body kit, etc...kinda cool!

Wonder who's going to turbo that thing first?
