I am very pissed off to knoa that my Scion will no longer b the only square object roaming the streets around here...

Kia just released the Kia Soul... i was in my room watchin VH1, and this commercial came on..
I'm thinkin oooo cool a new Scion commercial.

i like the KIA commercial - the car is targeted toward the "Y" generation. i hate the fact they cant come up with something more original - i looks like the an xB and an xA had a bastard child.:blink2:

just my 2cents :pokey:

Yeah, Scion kinda dropped the ball. They had the market on the econoBox, then canned it for the Camry wagon and now everyone else is copying the 1gen xB's success. All we ever wanted was a 1.8L in the same body.

BTW, if you saw the Heavy Hitters Ford Flex, it looks even more like a supersized xB.

Yeah, just another copy cat. What do they say, imitation is the best form of flattery?

Remember, they can through all the money they want at these crappy copies, but no one can duplicate the culture that Scion has created. So all you will have is a couple thousand soccer mom's trying to stay cool looking ... nothing more ..

While Im not one for the xB, that kia soul looks like crap. The missan cube has an ugly ass rear bumper. Lunchbox is right, Scion created a culture with their line, that cannot be replicated

Gettin back to the Cube. The consumers over in Japan has already made this one a cult car........
But it will never have the following the xB has established !
When Pimp'd, it is damn nice lookin though.....

Yeah, I saw you guy's work on the HH Flex, damn nice. Is the intake piping backlit? Not sure how well the light would conduct without a fluid transfer medium, but definitely unique. Most people polish their pipes to make them stand out, you guys turn them invisible.

flex and soul could kiss my ass, but the Cube is alright in my book due to the fact its been arould the same amount of time as the xb, and yes i now the cube was not really boxy to began with,

plus its not as ugly as the flex or soul

Its funny. Yesterday I took a little road trip down Highway 90 from Mobile to Louisiana and I saw at least 50 kia soul's my gf said she counted 68ish in total. Here is the sad part I didn't see a single xD, 2nd gen xB or xA, I only saw around 13 tC's and maybe 7 first gen xB's. DAMN YOU KIA!!!

Let it be known that the Nissan Cube and Kia Soul are poopy.

The Ford Flex is actually pretty cool for a Ford.

idk... the nissan cube has been out in japan for a long time now.

But anyways...

With the introduction of the Kia Forte, Kia might be moving in the direction of Scion while Hyundai challenges Toyota.

Since hyundai owns kia now.
