Toyota Scion heading down under

[poita]

Released here on June 1, will be known as the Rukus

Interesting to see how it goes, pretty popular in the US

Priced around the $22k mark, and has a whole heap of options to cater for Gen-Y's

Noticed it was smaller but not that much smaller LOL, I was lazy and didn't read the whole article :)

So maybe it might attract small/mid sized SUV buyers :)

22k For one of these i think is a bit much. These are really popular in the Modifying scene too. Usually decked out with alot of Audio gear and Big wheels etc.. Haven't seen one built for speed though :s.
