I cant see them makin this a scion-i really think this is gonna be more of a mature car than what seems to be the popular opinion...more akin to a 350z than a toyota celica or even a 240. the fact that they are even going with a boxer engine to me says they are really considering performance. If this was another boy racer to just look good and be affordable they would throw in an engine from a camry or solara like the same foolishness they have been doing.
If they decide to to make this a mature (aka as more expensive) supra replacement, I would think that it would share the IS powerplants and transmissions rather than the boxer engine. I hope they do decide tp release it as a Scion, only because this means it will be affordable and hopefully you can order a somewhat stripped down model without having to settle for a crappy engine and transmission option.
